The skin, hair and nails are designed to protect the body. The skin forms a defensive barrier that shields the network of muscles, bones, nerves, blood vessels and organs from the harsh outside environment, whilst the nails and hair that extend from the skin provide extra protection. All three also act as an indicator of a person's general health, responding to fluctuations of stress and environment.
In this section, we guide you through the range of medical conditions that may affect the skin, nails or hair.
