Usefulness of Ego's site
Ego’s site is designed and written to provide an initial and useful general practical explanation of a range of common skin conditions with possible appropriate treatments. Bearing in mind the uniqueness of every person it is not feasible to set out in detail every common skin condition and the comprehensive treatment which might apply in each particular case. While Ego’s site may offer information about a particular problem Ego cannot confirm that that problem is what the user has nor the right treatment in the circumstances. It is correct to seek advice from the appropriate health care professional especially when a condition does not respond to treatment within a reasonable length of time.
