Walk with us through common skin complaints in primary care, focusing on the trunk and extremities. Our favorite skinternist, Dr. Helena Pasieka (Chief of Dermatology at Kashlak) schools us on tinea versicolor, the fluff test, treatment of skin tags, how to work up and manage generalized pruritus, venous insufficiency, and how to get ready for sandal season in the face of onychomycosis. #dermismedicine!
