PY - 2022 T2 - Clinical Dermatology: Diagnosis and Management of Common Disorders, 2e AB - A stroll down the pharmacy aisle is proof enough that genital symptoms plague our society. Many patients will go to great lengths to solve genital symptoms on their own, whether motivated by embarrassment, lack of access to medical care, or uncertainty as to which medical professional is best suited to treat the problem. This often leads to a delay in care and sometimes more than one cause of their symptoms by the time care is obtained.
