Detailed explanation-1: -Pellagra also produces a distinctive type of dermatitis, particularly on sun-exposed areas of the body, such as the face, neck, arms, legs, hands and feet. Deprived of energy resources, the skin cells become more photosensitive.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some of the most common skin diseases include: Acne, blocked skin follicles that lead to oil, bacteria and dead skin buildup in your pores. Alopecia areata, losing your hair in small patches. Atopic dermatitis (eczema), dry, itchy skin that leads to swelling, cracking or scaliness.
Detailed explanation-3: -Pellagra-related dermatitis often causes thickened and scaly skin, rashes, and discoloration. Doctors refer to the appearance of these symptoms around the neck as a Casal collar or Casal necklace. The affected area of skin may become sensitive to light and feel and look like a sunburn.
