About Me

Welcome to my blog! My name is Paul. I woke up one morning and discovered that I had a red patch on my back. It was a little bit itchy so I started to scratch it. The red patch grew in size and began to become slightly raised. I ignored it, but my wife eventually insisted that I visit my GP. The doctor examined my skin and referred me to a dermatologist. I have never even heard of a dermatologist before, so I had no idea how they might help. The dermatologist examined my skin and diagnosed the problem as dermatitis. She prescribed a topical cream which cleared the problem up. She also gave me some top skin care tips. I started this blog to share what I have learnt about skin care.
