The most typical signs and symptoms of psoriasis are: 
  • Elevated, bright red patches of skin covered in loose, silvery scales
  • Plaques that occur on both sides of the body in the same location, such as both knees and/or elbows
  • Scaling can range from modest to extensive, crusty plaques 
  • Itching is typical in the days leading up to flare-ups, especially when psoriatic patches form in body folds like the buttocks or breasts
  • When scales are peeled or scraped off, areas of the skin can bleed
  • Nails may become pitted, discolored, or crumble and break off.

  • Plaque Psoriasis 
  • Pustular Psoriasis

Frequently Asked Questions

The type of treatment you use is determined by the severity of your psoriasis and how well it responded to previous therapies. Before you find a treatment that works for you, you may need to try a variety of medications or a combination of treatments.
Although additional research is needed, doctors believe that patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are more prone to develop other serious diseases.
According to several studies, a little bit every day can help with your symptoms. However, you must exercise caution to avoid overdoing it. A sunburn could cause a flare-up.
Psoriasis can be worse by stress, illness, lack of sleep, and damage, particularly to your child’s skin. Infection with the bacteria Streptococcus, which causes tonsillitis, causes psoriasis to worsen.
