Sports Dermatology
Sports injuries are among the most frequent issues in emergency rooms and physicians' offices, and the most common of these injuries affect the skin. Conditions ranging from innocuous skin injuries to skin disease that can bench a nationally ranked wrestling team occur with alarming frequency. This handbook gathers the most clinically relevant and badly needed information in this emerging area of sports dermatology. Both common and unusual disorders related to sports are reviewed in detail. The inside covers of the book list dermatologic conditions affecting athletes, first by sport and then by specific skin condition, for quick reference and easy access. Photographs of the sports-related dermatoses help clinicians to visualize the different clinical morphologies apparent in athletes. The book will assist the many clinicians faced with these issues to chose the most appropriate treatment and prevention plan for their specific athlete population.
