Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a skin condition that causes red, scaly patches to appear on the body. It can be itchy and painful, and it is more common in people who have a family history of psoriasis. The cause of psoriasis is not well understood, but it is thought to be related to immune system dysfunction as well as genetics.

Psoriasis often presents as plaque psoriasis, which is the most common type. There are also other presentations such as guttate psoriasis or pustular psoriasis, which are less common. Plaque psoriasis appears as raised, red patches on the skin. The patches may be covered in silver scales or flakes. Guttate psoriasis causes small, rain drop-shaped patches of redness to appear on the skin. Pustular psoriasis can appear and evolve very quickly, with pus filled blisters appearing over inflamed and tender skin.
