This work reviews the various types of dermatological conditions that affect athletes and sports participants, and provides relevant treatment options in each of the cases. Although there are many articles pertaining to sports medicine in relation to orthopedic and musculoskeletal injuries, there is a shortage of comprehensive literature pertaining the effects of athletics on skin health. Considering the popularity of sports and athletic pursuits, it is important for clinicians to be able to provide preventative guidance and treatment recommendations related to the sports that patients participate in. Previous literature related to sports and dermatology has been confined to review articles that do not provide a thorough breakdown into the various types of sports that have unique biomechanical and environmental components that are worth describing in a book format (e.g. scuba diving and cutaneous decompression sickness).
