Psoriasis – An Overview

Psoriasis is a very common skin ailment which modifies the skin cells’ life cycle. Psoriasis causes the cells to accumulate rapidly on the skin’s surface. The extra cells of the skin form red, itchy, silvery and thick patches that are oftentimes painful.

Psoriasis is a persistent, chronic skin disorder. There could be times when the symptoms of psoriasis seem to get better, although it may also seem to get worse on other days.

The initial objective of psoriasis treatment is to keep the cells from developing so rapidly. There are no cures for psoriasis, although treatment strategies may provide considerable relief. Lifestyle changes such as exposing the skin to little amounts of sunlight or applying non-prescription cortisone cream may also improve the symptoms of psoriasis.

The symptoms and signs of psoriasis can differ from one person to another although they may consist of any of the following:
• Stiff and swollen joints
• Ridges, pitted or thickened nails
• Soreness, burning or itching
• Dry and cracked skin that may tend to bleed
• Tiny scaling spots which are usually observed in children
• Red skin patches covered with silvery scales

The skin patches resulting from psoriasis can differ widely from a couple of dandruff-like spots to major outbreaks which may cover wider areas. Almost all kinds of psoriasis go through a cycle: outbreaks for a couple of weeks or even months, subsequently a subsiding period or even going to entire reduction. Several different kinds of psoriasis exist, which include the following:

Psoriatic arthritis – aside from the common symptoms of psoriasis which include scaly, inflamed skin, psoriatic arthritis causes discolored and pitted nails. This particular type of psoriasis also leads to painful, swollen joints that are common with arthritis. Psoriatic arthritis symptoms may range from mild to severe and it may affect any joint all over the body.
