Abstract

As the largest organ in the body, skin can prove the most daunting to diagnose and manage due to the large number of conditions and their uncanny ability to have similar qualities visually. Skin can reflect current trauma or infections or can be a harbinger of an underlying systemic disorder. With knowledge of the most common pediatric skin conditions, it is possible for practitioners to start a child on a basic treatment regimen and then refer to an appropriate specialist for more complex or rare disorders. This article covers the most common skin conditions seen on the lower extremity in the pediatric population.
