Registered summary

Stress can have multiple and varied psychological and clinical impacts on skin diseases (Colavincenzo and Granstein, 2006; Graubard et al., 2021). In particular, psychological stress has been shown to reduce the rebuilding kinetics of the skin barrier when altered and it is suggested that psychological stress may trigger or exacerbate immune-mediated dermatological disorders (Hall et al., 2012). Certain symptoms related to sensitive skin problems (itching, burning, pain, etc.) can lead to sleep disorders associated with stress and anxiety. The full summary is on the listing.
