This complete and exam-focused document includes 40+ clinically detailed questions and answers from the Clinical Medicine III (CM3) final exam, primarily covering dermatologic conditions relevant to diagnosis, treatment, and pathology. It features clinical vignettes to reinforce diagnostic reasoning and management strategies for eczema (atopic, contact, dyshidrotic), fungal infections (tinea corporis, pedis, versicolor), seborrheic dermatitis, lichen simplex, and impetigo. Key concepts include identifying lesions by morphology (e.g., annular, vesicular, crusted, lichenified), differentiating fungal vs. bacterial causes via Gram stain or KOH prep, and determining treatment selection (ointments vs. creams, corticosteroids vs. antifungals). The document also explores acneiform disorders, photocontact dermatitis, HSV-related dermatoses, and drug-induced photosensitivity. In the skin cancer section, critical features of basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma are addressed, including diagnostic signs (e.g., pearly papule, telangiectasias, ulceration) and prognostic indicators like lesion depth. The content is ideal for medical students, nursing students, physician associate programs, and learners in dermatology, primary care, or internal medicine preparing for clinical exams or final assessments. Keywords: atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, dyshidrotic eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, impetigo, lichen simplex, tinea corporis, tinea pedis, tinea versicolor, HSV, HPV, acne, photocontact dermatitis, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, telangiectasia, skin cancer, Gram stain, KOH prep
