DISORDERS
TREATMENT OF SKIN

Skin diseases are ubiquitous. In
fact, the maintenance of a perfect
skin at all times is rare. Much
has been said and written in a loose
manner about this subject of skin.
Remedies and methods of treat
ment suggested have been mani
fold. Daily on the radio some
nostrum is cleverly advertised for
universal use in skin ailments.
However, we still see many people
suffering from the same skin COM
plants.
Actually these diseases are not
all the same, nor will the same
method cure them or any one group
of them. They are classified &C
cording to the dominant character
istic present. Thus they may be
grouped as simple reddening, in
Examinations, hemorrhages, hyper
trophies, atrophies, pigmentations,
neuroses, new growths, parasitic
Acknowledgement and special
(Sutton). The most of these are
due to some disturbance arising
from little-understood irritation;
many, however, arise from definite
infections.
The proper treatment must take
into consideration all underlying
causes and the specific lesion on the
skin. Internal treatment and diet
are very important in some and
worthless in the majority. The ex-
ternal treatment must be directed
toward a specific end such as
cleansing, soothing, protecting, the
prevention of itching, desquama-
ton, removal of oxygen, and anti
sepsis. The choice of the proper
method or combination of methods
will in an individual case determine
success or failure in the eradication
of the blemish. Unfortunately
most skin LESSONS are chronic in
character and therefore respond
very slowly to any treatment. In
order to get the best results pa
tience and thoroughness must be
practiced by the individual in his
properly prescribed treatment.
Self-diagnosis and self-prescribed
treatment usually makes the con-
dition worse.

several hundred sent in from all
over the country:
"A tribute to the past and a

The. major contribution of the
Negro to the initial ceremony was
