Fox Fordyce Disease

 

Fox Fordyce disease is a disorder of the skin which usually affects women. This disorder causes intense itching in the pubic area, the underarm area and the area around the nipples. In this disorder, the abnormalities which affect the apocrine sweat glands cause irritation and enlargement of the sweat glands and the itching. The affected skin area becomes darkened and dry. It may also cause dry, multiple small papules to develop. Moreover, the hair follicles in the affected area may get damaged thus resulting in loss of hair. There is no exact cause known for Fox Fordyce disease.
