Abstract

Currently, there is little guidance in the literature on how to advise patients who wear the hijab on hijab-related dermatoses. This manuscript describes hijab-related dermatoses and provides culturally sensitive recommendations that can be used in conjunction with standard treatments to provide more holistic care for these patients.
