Seborrheic Keratosis Seborrheic keratoses are benign lesions that don't necessarily look benign. They can have various colors, grow quickly, itch, and sometimes bleed. Fortunately, they are fairly easy to distinguish from skin cancers.
Dermatitis The term dermatitis describes many classifications of rashes.
The most common dermatitis is atopic dermatitis or eczema.
