Description
Tackle rashes with wisdom from Kashlak’s resident Skinternist (or Internist-Externist) Dr. Helena Pasieka (MedStar, Georgetown), board certified in both Internal Medicine and Dermatology. She offers “a rash approach to rashes” including: initial triage, ‘inside job’ vs ‘outside job’, differential diagnosis, a review of common culprits, basic management techniques, and how to determine if the reaction is life-threatening. Plus, Dr Pasieka teaches us how to handle family and friends asking, “Can you take a look at this rash?”. Full show notes at https://thecurbsiders.com/podcast.
