What is psoriasis?

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune disease condition characterized by itchy, discoloured, and scaly rash patches on the skin surface. According to the National Health Service (NHS), two in a hundred people have psoriasis in the UK.

Unfortunately, psoriasis has no cure, but there are medications to help attenuate the effects. The condition is considered autoimmune because part of the body’s immune system becomes overly active, fails to differentiate between self-cells and foreign bodies, and then attacks the body’s normal tissues.

As a result of this chronic autoimmune reaction, the growth cycle of skin cells is sped up, resulting in thick and scaly skin regions. The typical life cycle of a skin cell is clocked at approximately a month.

However, in people with psoriasis, the time is shortened to a few days resulting in the buildup and accumulation of skin cell layers. Psoriasis is chronic which means it could cause a flare-up unexpectedly.

Unfortunately, research still hasn’t shed light on the cause of autoimmune diseases. However, it is speculated that genetics, infections, diets and exposure to chemicals might be some of the possible causes.

Symptoms of psoriasis

Psoriasis-afflicted individuals find it hard to sleep, concentrate and wear certain outfits because of the inflammation and pain associated with the condition. Chronic disease tends to surface in cycles. For weeks or months, the condition flares before abating for a while. The scales appear grey, brown or purplish on darker skin tones, but typically as whitish, with red swollen patches. Occasionally, these patches might crack and bleed.

Psoriasis treatment

There are numerous treatment methods to help manage psoriasis. These treatments depend on the type of psoriasis and the doctor’s diagnosis. You must seek professional medical consultation to assess the situation appropriately.

Considering the size and location of the rash, severity, age, and overall health condition of the person, among others, are crucial to an effective treatment.

Based on the consultation, a decision will be made on the type, combination if needed, and treatment time frame. The treatment aims to reduce inflammation, remove plaques, reduce scales and slow the growth of skin cells.
