Experiences of transition from adolescence to young adulthood in the context of chronic skin conditions: an interpretative phenomenological analysis
Findings highlight the difficulties experienced by young dermatology patients, particularly during adolescence, including challenges with healthcare providers, mobility disruptions and stigmatisation. Findings offer insight into how young people can be supported during their transition into adulthood, for example, treating skin conditions with a psychodermatological approach.
