Psoriasis

Track16: Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that affects the skin, causing inflammation and the development of red, scaly patches. These patches can appear anywhere on the body, but are most commonly found on the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back.

Psoriasis is caused by an overactive immune system that mistakenly attacks healthy skin cells, causing them to grow too quickly. This rapid growth leads to the formation of thick, scaly patches on the skin. Psoriasis can be triggered by a variety of factors, including stress, infections, certain medications, and cold weather. It can also be genetic, and tends to run in families.

There are several different types of psoriasis, including

  • Plaque psoriasis
  • Guttate psoriasis
  • Inverse psoriasis
  • Pustular psoriasis
  • Erythrodermic psoriasis

The most common type is plaque psoriasis, which accounts for about 80% of cases.
