Ergashev Z.A., Nuralieva D.M. , Military Medical Academy of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan

Abstract

This article is dedicated to the study of post-COVID dermatitis in military personnel, with a focus on clinical-immunological indicators and preventive measures. The study addresses the primary symptoms of dermatological manifestations resulting from a previous COVID-19 infection, including skin rashes, inflammation, and itching, as well as immunological changes such as alterations in cytokine and antibody levels. Special attention is given to the analysis of risk factors such as stress, exposure to physical and climatic conditions, and the immune response peculiarities in military personnel that may exacerbate the development of skin diseases after infection. Recommendations for preventing post-COVID dermatitis are provided, including the use of specialized dermatological products, immune system support, psychological recovery, as well as the importance of early diagnosis and timely treatment.
