Psoriasis can be really upsetting. It is one of the most mystifying and irritating skin disorders caused by our own immune system. In psoriasis the skin produces new cells far too quickly with the result that the older cells are pushed off the surface at an unusually rapid rate. This creates red skin with flaky, silver-white patches to form over the skin that causes itching and irritation. Small dusty scales can come off the skin’s surface at the slightest touch. These patches are commonly seen on the knees, elbows or scalp. In some rare cases they can be found on the palms of the hand, toe nails, soles of the feet and on the face. Though psoriasis is not contagious, it can be inherited. The chances increase with the number of close relatives who have the disease. Though we don’t know the exact reason why psoriasis develops, there are several triggers, which aggravate psoriasis flare-ups. Understanding these triggers is a vital step in preventing future psoriasis flare-ups. Stress is a major factor that triggers psoriasis flare-ups. Many people experience psoriasis flare-ups when they are stressed. So trying some relaxation technique or yoga can reduce the severity of stress. Also dry skin can worsen psoriasis. Dry skin gets cracked easily which provides an easy entry for micro-organisms, which in turn bring up itching and irritation. So it is advisable to moisturise your skin daily after bath with a good moisturiser.
