What Is Psoriasis?
Psoriasis is an autosomal dominant disorders of the skin which is not infectious and manifests as scaly plaques of red or pink colors. This is a condition that is initiated by the immune system that makes skin cells to divide at a very bad rate thus tends to form plaques. However, despite understanding that is less well-understood, more numerous research shows that here are genetic and environmental triggers.
Types of Psoriasis
- Plaque Psoriasis: The most prevalent form presenting with circular or ovoid, raised, red plaques having a central scale-crusted zone.
- Guttate Psoriasis: Skin condition, small, round in form, they tend to develop from infection.
- Inverse Psoriasis: Painless, bright red, smooth-surfaced nodules or plaques located in intertriginous areas.
- Pustular Psoriasis: Rash like white sore that is surrounded by red skin.
- Erythrodermic Psoriasis: A papuloso-erosive, inflammatory disease accompanied by erythema and scaling impaired over large skin areas.
Causes and Triggers
While the precise cause of psoriasis remains elusive, several factors contribute to its development:
- Genetics: A past family history of psoriasis was also identified as a risk factor.
- Immune System Dysfunction: Your immune system works in overdrive to destroy skin cells as if they are invaders.
- Triggers: The causes of tinnitus include stress, infections, certain medicines, and tobacco smoking, and excessive alcohol taking.
Symptoms of Psoriasis
Symptoms vary depending on the type and severity of the condition, but common signs include:
- Smear with a red summit of skin with a thick, silvery layer.
- Skin becomes dry, scaly and some may even begin to exfoliate and bleed.
- A common set of symptoms include itching, burning, or soreness of the treatment area.
- Thickened or ridged nails.

Treatment Options at AWISH Clinic
Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease we have at AWISH Clinic, and we attend to our patients accordingly. The type and severity of the psoriasis are first established using dermatological equipment by our highly qualified dermatologists Dr. Vijay Kumar and Dr. Pooja Varshney before treatment is recommended.
1. Topical Treatments
- Corticosteroids: For decreasing inflammation and activity of scaling.
- Vitamin D Analogues: To slow skin cell growth.
- Coal Tar: For itching and scaling.
2. Phototherapy
Phototherapy or light therapy means that the skin is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light with the instruction of doctors. That is, it helps in reducing the growth rate of the skin cells which is handy in the management of the condition.
3. Systemic Treatments
In the worst cases, there are systemic drugs for controlling the activity of the immune system. These include:
- Methotrexate
- Cyclosporine
- Targeted therapy or Biologic agents have been established as cure for Cancer since they are alternative therapeutics.
4. Lifestyle Modifications
- Taking regular exercises along with following anti inflammatory diet plans.
