What is Psoriasis?
Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin condition where skin cells build up too quickly, forming thick, red, scaly patches. It can appear on the scalp, elbows, knees, back, or other areas. Psoriasis is not contagious and often runs in families. Flare-ups can be triggered by stress, illness, skin injury, or certain medications.
