Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that causes the skin to become inflamed and thickened, leading to red, scaly patches on the skin. It is characterized by a rapid buildup of skin cells, which can lead to thick, crusty plaques, and is often accompanied by symptoms such as itching, burning, and stiffness. While there is no cure for psoriasis, treatment options include topical creams, light therapy, and systemic medications, as well as lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and managing stress.
