Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic condition caused by an overactive immune system.

It is characterized by skin cells that multiply 10 times faster than normal. as underlying cell reaches to the surface fast and des, this causes an increase in cell volume i.e. raised red plaques covered with white scales.

It may be itchy, painful and sometimes crack and bleed. The plaques of irritated skin will grow and merge into one another covering large area.

Psoriasis can also affect fingernails and toenails and can cause discoloration and pitting of nails. Nails may also get detached from the nail bed.

Psoriasis can affect bones and can also cause psoriatic arthritis which leads to pain and swelling in the joint. Psoriasis is non-contagious. It commonly affects the skin of the elbow, knees, and scalp. Psoriasis is related to inherited genes and immune system. Psoriasis is not contagious. The proliferation of skin cells is triggered by inflammatory chemicals, produced by specialized WBC called T-Cells.
