Dermatology pathophysiology involves understanding normal skin structure and function, then how various insults lead to skin disease. Infections, inflammation, allergic reactions, and genetic factors can compromise skin barrier function, leading to visible and systemic manifestations requiring nursing intervention.
Skin conditions range from superficial to life-threatening and from cosmetic to systemic disease. Understanding pathophysiological mechanisms enables nurses to assess severity, recognize signs of systemic involvement, and implement appropriate interventions supporting healing and preventing complications.
