Psoriasis

Decoding Psoriasis: The Persistent Skin Puzzle

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition marked by the rapid turnover of skin cells, leading to red, scaly patches that can appear on various parts of the body. 

  • Though the exact cause of psoriasis remains unclear, it is believed to involve a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental factors.
  • While there is no cure, treatments aim to manage symptoms and improve quality of life, including alternative approaches like homeopathy that seek to address the condition holistically.

Symptoms of Psoriasis

  • Red, Scaly Patches: Typically found on elbows, knees, scalp, and lower back.
  • Itching and Discomfort: Can range from mild to severe, impacting daily activities.
  • Dry, Cracked Skin: Areas may bleed or become infected if scratched.
  • Thickened Nails: Nails may become pitted, discolored, or separated from the nail bed.
  • Joint Pain: Some individuals experience psoriatic arthritis, causing joint inflammation and pain.

Treatment Options for Psoriasis

  • Topical Treatments: Creams and ointments to reduce inflammation and scale buildup.
  • Phototherapy: Exposure to ultraviolet light under medical supervision to slow skin cell production.
  • Systemic Medications: Oral or injected medications that affect the entire body, used for severe cases.
