PREVALENCE OF SKIN DISORDERS AMONG PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN IN URBAN RAIPUR CHHATTISGAR

Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 12

Abstract

Skin disorders are very common among primary school children in RAIPUR. Older age group is affected more than the younger one. Transmissible disorder constituted ≈ 44% of total skin disease burden in our subjects. Educating children to improve their hygienic status may bring down the prevalence of transmissible diseases among them and this can be easily carried out at school level. Nutritional deficiencies were also noted in a significant number of students and hence cannot be overlooked. Educating children for eating healthy food and distribution of other nutritional supplements with iron-folic acid among school children at schools could contribute to improve health status of children.
