Dermatology and Venereology

Dermatology and Venereology is a combined medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of skin diseases and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Dermatology covers a wide range of conditions affecting the skin, hair, and nails, such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, skin cancers, and allergic reactions. Venereology specifically deals with the study and treatment of STIs, including conditions like syphilis, gonorrhea, and herpes. Dermatologists and venereologists work to manage these conditions through medical, surgical, and cosmetic interventions, aiming to improve skin health, treat infections, and address the aesthetic concerns of patients. This specialty plays a critical role in maintaining skin health and managing infectious diseases.
