Recognizing Benign and Malignant Skin Conditions by Claudia Joy Wingo
Protecting Our Shell: Recognizing Benign and Malignant Skin Conditions By Claudia Joy Wingo Learning Outcomes: Participants who attend this presentation should have: • Learned basic terminology, pathophysiology and methods of diagnosis for a variety of skin lesions. • Gained a basic understanding on the difference of appearance between benign and malignant skin lesions. • Acquired specific herbal protocols in reference to skin conditions and lesions. Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States with more than 2 million cases diagnosed each year. The large majority of these are slow growing, non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC) but early detection is important to prevent lesion infiltration, disfigurement and possible loss of function as well as recognition of the rarer but more dangerous melanoma lesions (Mahon SM, 2011). As herbalists, naturopaths and integrative health practitioners we pride ourselves on client-centered care, taking the time to do a thorough and extensive client intake. In this role, it is important that we have the basic skills to recognize and distinguish a variety of skin conditions including cutaneous skin lesions. This pictorial presentation seeks to educate herbal and integrative health practitioners on the appearance of both benign and malignant skin lesions and possible herbal recommendations for the prior. We will briefly cover skin physiology and pathophysiology, methods of clinical diagnosis, associated risk factors and identifying features of a variety of common skin lesions. This in turn, will aid the practitioner in knowing when to refer the client on. Herbal protocols for support and prevention of recurrence as well as case studies will be covered. -

Features of Reactive White Lesions of the Oral Mucosa
Head and Neck Pathology (2019) 13:16–24 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12105-018-0986-3 SPECIAL ISSUE: COLORS AND TEXTURES, A REVIEW OF ORAL MUCOSAL ENTITIES Frictional Keratosis, Contact Keratosis and Smokeless Tobacco Keratosis: Features of Reactive White Lesions of the Oral Mucosa Susan Müller1 Received: 21 September 2018 / Accepted: 2 November 2018 / Published online: 22 January 2019 © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract White lesions of the oral cavity are quite common and can have a variety of etiologies, both benign and malignant. Although the vast majority of publications focus on leukoplakia and other potentially malignant lesions, most oral lesions that appear white are benign. This review will focus exclusively on reactive white oral lesions. Included in the discussion are frictional keratoses, irritant contact stomatitis, and smokeless tobacco keratoses. Leukoedema and hereditary genodermatoses that may enter in the clinical differential diagnoses of frictional keratoses including white sponge nevus and hereditary benign intraepithelial dyskeratosis will be reviewed. Many products can result in contact stomatitis. Dentrifice-related stomatitis, contact reactions to amalgam and cinnamon can cause keratotic lesions. Each of these lesions have microscopic findings that can assist in patient management. Keywords Leukoplakia · Frictional keratosis · Smokeless tobacco keratosis · Stomatitis · Leukoedema · Cinnamon Introduction white lesions including infective and non-infective causes will be discussed
