Abstract
Obesity is one of the most significant health challenges of our time, affecting every part of the body-including the skin. The skin problems associated with obesity can increase overall morbidity, which forms the basis of this review article. While many cutaneous manifestations are common among all obese individuals, obesity also serves as an important risk factor for inflammatory dermatoses such as psoriasis, atopic eczema, and certain rare disorders.
