Day 5 went by super quickly! Today I was in the care of Dr. May again, and I could not be more grateful! She always takes the time to explain concepts to me and makes sure I am always included. Today we had more biopsies of moles and full body checks. In addition to those, we had a couple unique cases! There was a case of an autoimmune disease that manifested as a rash and flaky skin that would occur whenever the sun or heat was present. Another unique case was one of yeast overgrowth in response to moist environments, in this case caused by sweat. The yeast impacted the skin pigmentation, causing the white discolorations on the back. Another patient came in with a wart on the foot that had been over medicated with salicylic acid. As a result, a callous formed on the foot that had to be scraped off. Overall, today was a great day! Below is a photo of the yeast overgrowth called Tinea versicolor.
