Skin infections, moles, rashes and new freckles can arise while you're at home during the coronavirus. Here's when you should see a doctor, either virtually or in person.
“If your skin is inflamed, red and painful, and [the issue is] not going away, that should be a ‘must book’ skin issue,” Jaliman said. “Anything that seems like it’s infected is a ‘must book’ skin issue. Some signs of infection are pus, fever, red swollen skin and pain.”
All experts agree that any elective cosmetic procedures should wait until stay-at-home orders are completely lifted for the safety of all involved.Even if doctors’ offices are starting to open, I do not recommend putting yourself in a high-risk environment for voluntary procedures,” Zeichner said.Dermatologists say that any elective cosmetic procedures, such as Botox or fillers, should wait until stay-at-home orders are completely lifted for the safety of all involved.
“Nonurgent medical dermatology conditions such as acne, rosacea, hair loss and actinic keratoses are routinely being deferred, as are chronic conditions like eczema and psoriasis. In-person evaluation of limited rashes and stable skin lesions can similarly be delayed,” King explained. “Teledermatology visits can be scheduled for these concerns. And regular skin checks for patients without a history of melanoma or other aggressive skin cancer are also being deferred.
