Skin diseases are thought to be common in the general population. In 2004, a cross-sectional study in Norway, using a validated questionnaire for 18,770 individuals, revealed a high prevalence of skin diseases in the general population. To describe the prevalence of self-reported skin morbidities and possible socio-demographic and economic associations in the Danish general population, and furthermore compare this data to that reported in Norway. A population-based cross-sectional study of the adult Danish suburban population was performed. Participants (n = 20,164) completed the Norwegian validated questionnaire. In total, 17.2% self-reported skin complaints. The most prominent self-reported skin complaint was itch with an overall prevalence of 6.5%. The skin morbidity most influenced by age was pimples. There was a uniform pattern showing fewer skin complaints with increasing education. Women reported skin morbidities more frequently than men. Participants in employment reported fewer skin morbidities compared to unemployed participants. Skin morbidities in Denmark are common, and the distribution of prevalence estimates in the Danish population parallel those of the Norwegian population, although the prevalence is generally higher in Norway. This difference may be attributed to climatic differences, and age, education, sex, and employment status may also be influential.
皮肤病被认为在普通人群中很常见。2004年，挪威的一项横断面研究对18770人使用了经过验证的问卷，结果显示普通人群中皮肤病的患病率很高。为了描述丹麦普通人群中自我报告的皮肤疾病患病率以及可能的社会人口统计学和经济关联，并将此数据与挪威报告的数据进行比较。对丹麦郊区成年人口进行了一项基于人群的横断面研究。参与者（n = 20164）完成了挪威经过验证的问卷。总体而言，17.2%的人自我报告有皮肤问题。最突出的自我报告皮肤问题是瘙痒，总体患病率为6.5%。受年龄影响最大的皮肤疾病是粉刺。随着教育程度的提高，皮肤问题呈减少的一致模式。女性报告皮肤疾病的频率高于男性。就业参与者报告的皮肤疾病比失业参与者少。丹麦的皮肤疾病很常见，丹麦人群中患病率估计的分布与挪威人群相似，尽管挪威的患病率通常更高。这种差异可能归因于气候差异，年龄、教育程度、性别和就业状况也可能有影响。
