Our Services / Skin Conditions

What are common skin conditions?

Skin conditions can be acute (it comes on suddenly) or chronic (a long-term problem) and affect the appearance and health of your skin.

MyHomeDoc offers telehealth services to diagnose and treat various skin conditions in adults, including:

• Acne
• Rashes
• Eczema
• Shingles
• Athlete’s foot

The skilled medical team can also manage cellulitis. This serious bacterial skin infection develops due to a skin injury or disease.

They provide online diagnostic evaluations of your skin through a video conferencing platform and personalize your treatment to protect your skin’s long-term health. Same-day urgent care appointments are available so that severe skin problems can be diagnosed and treated without delay and without leaving home.

You can schedule a one-time visit for a flat fee or enroll in the annual subscription telehealth plan that includes direct access to the medical specialists on weekends and after hours.

When should I seek treatment for skin conditions?

Schedule a consultation at MyHomeDoc if you have unusual changes in your skin or experience symptoms, including:

• Pain
• Redness
• Swelling
• Blisters
• Discoloration
• Excessive dryness

Cellulitis and other skin infections can also cause fever and chills. Without treatment, infections can spread to other areas of your body.

The medical team meets with you online to review your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and evaluate the affected skin. They can request bloodwork and other diagnostic tests to confirm which skin condition you have.

How are skin conditions treated?

MyHomeDoc provides personalized treatment to ease the existing symptoms of a skin condition and prevent them from getting worse.

The team provides one-on-one medical guidance to support the healing of your skin condition. They can recommend topical medications, oral antibiotics, and/or over-the-counter (OTC) pain relievers. They can also teach you how to care for your skin to prevent eczema flare-ups and other chronic skin conditions.

If you need specialized care, the team can refer you to a dermatologist or other specialist for additional treatment.

You can schedule a follow-up visit with the team to allow them to monitor the success of your treatment. You can also access additional skin care resources to reduce your risk of further acne breakouts, infections, and other skin problems.
