Summary

It had been found in certain studies that there is an alteration of normal skin flora in patients with arsenical keratosis. The relationship between such altered skin flora and development of keratosis in arsenicosis is not established or explored.There is no such study where effects of antimicrobials have been evaluated as the treatment of arsenical keratosis. So the present study is designed to see the effects of antimicrobials on the altered skin flora (Enterobacter and Aspergillus) in patients with palmar arsenical keratosis.
