The skin's importance is often overlooked by about a half of the world's population - mostly men - although this is rapidly changing. Even so, most of those who do worry about their skin are mainly interested in the areas that show like the face, neck and hands.
However, the skin is not only the largest organ on the body (human or otherwise), it is also the membrane that literally holds us together. On a recent visit to a dermatologist, I described a small cut on my hand as 'nothing serious'. The dermatologist's response surprised me. Your skin is not only there to keep bodily fluids in, he said, but to keep pathogens out. Every time that barrier is damaged, it makes it easier for bacteria to get in. Bacteria can cause infections such as sepsis and blood poisoning which can be irreversible and so lethal. I am no longer so blasé about nicks and scratches as I once was in my silly, macho male way.
