Understanding the Integumentary System and Common Skin Conditions

The integumentary system is a group of tissues that cover the body from the skin on the surface to the internal organs. The system includes the skin, hair, nails, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, mammary glands, and other organs. The integumentary system helps protect the body from the environment and inside-out pathogens. Skin conditions can be caused by a variety of factors, including environmental exposure, genetics, and lifestyle choices. Many skin conditions are treatable with medication or surgery. In some cases, however, the cause of the condition is unknown and may require extensive research. Here are six common skin conditions and their causes:

Acne is a common skin ailment that can be treated with naturopathy. Naturopaths use natural treatments, such as diet and supplements, to improve the appearance of skin lesions.
