Özet:

The importance of skin diseases occurring in people playing various sports is of special interest. Therefore, usually benign skin conditions may become serious and disabling in this particular group of patients and make impossible for them to achieve outstanding results. Skin is the biggest organ of our body (1.5-1.8 m2), and not less important, presents a first barrier in complex interactions between individual organism and surrounding nature. Injuries, friction, excessive sweating, close contact with other players, a lifestyle related to constant traveling and many other factors cause misbalance in skin structure and its protective function. Every skin lesion has to be treated immediately, making the treatment easier, and stopping it from spreading to other players of the team if we treat the infectious skin disease. Still, the most important approach should be prevention.
