Medical advice is often biased towards white skin.
. Often the core symptoms associated with these types of skin conditions such as redness present very differently and it is important to be aware of how these differences show themselves.
Colour – Certainly on dark skin, redness is less likely to present in the way we associate with our white counterparts, namely flushing and pinkness. However, some skin conditions such as psoriasis can show with a darkening of the skin or as a purple shade. Texture – Do areas of your skin feel dry, tight or have a rough texture? It is worth noting whether they take any particular shape or are the patches random?
Spots or blisters – Some skin conditions also show spots or blistered skin. On Black skin this is important to look for as it can help to give more information on the specific condition that is being diagnosed.
