What is Psoriasis?

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder that causes the skin cells to grow rapidly, resulting in a buildup of dead cells in the skin surface. The skin develops red, thick, flaky, itchy patches on skin, which can bleed on itching excessively.

There are various types of psoriasis, ranging from large patches involving whole back, to small tiny patches on the whole body. It also affects wide variety of people, from children, to adults, to pregnant women. Psoriasis can develop over any area of your body, from scalp to nails to genitals.
