My Derm

My Derm is a free, clinician-backed mobile app that helps people with inflammatory skin conditions track symptoms, manage treatment, and access trusted resources. It combines a personal health record with medication and appointment reminders, flexible symptom and lifestyle logging (diet, sleep, stress, exercise), and a curated newsfeed and library of professional guidance to support long-term skin health. Users can share records with their care team, message registered hospital services directly, and link health data from device wellness apps to get a fuller picture. For anyone coping with flares or aiming to maintain remission, My Derm provides practical tools to stay organised and more confident in self-care.
