Psoriasis is a skin condition that causes the skin to multiply ten times faster than normal. Plaques of red, itchy, scales-covered skin are some of the most common symptoms. Psoriatic arthritis is a type of arthritis that can affect people who have psoriasis. Guttate psoriasis typically begins in childhood or early adulthood. Key symptoms of guttate psoriasis are patches of smooth, bright red and shiny skin with no scales. Psoriasis of the nails is general in people who have psoriatic arthritis. Approximately 90% of individuals who have it also have nail changes. The pathophysiology of psoriasis involves hyper proliferation, abnormal multiplication of epidermal keratinocyte, and inflammation along with alteration in the immunologic system of skin. Inflammation is caused by a problem with the immune system. Psoriasis usually runs in families, but it can skip generations. As the immune system is affected in the psoriasis triggers like cold, dry weather and stress aggravate the symptoms. In African American population purplish coloured patches with grey scales on very dark skin have been reported. There is no cure for psoriasis, but treatment can significantly reduce symptom, even in severe cases. A treatment regime is curated by the physician keeping in mind the area of the rash, age, overall health and other factors. Retinoid and steroids in the type of creams, ointments, gels etc. are prescribed. Various treatments are also available for patients with modest to severe psoriasis.[
