July 2003 in “Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery” Blood pressure drugs can cause skin lupus, early treatment is key for baby herpes and diabetic foot ulcers, a certain vaccine works against genital herpes and HPV in women, more frequent light therapy helps psoriasis, smoking and drinking can worsen psoriasis, a cream clears up a type of skin cancer, and low iron levels don't cause chronic hair loss.
July 2003 in “Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery” Blood pressure drugs can cause skin lupus, but it improves after stopping the drug. The glycoprotein D vaccine works against genital herpes in some women, and the HPV-16 vaccine reduces HPV-16 infection and related diseases. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. A cream called imiquimod effectively treats a type of skin cancer. Iron supplements don't necessarily help with chronic hair loss in women.
