Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that typically presents as red, scaly patches on the skin’s surface. In some cases, psoriasis can also affect the scalp, causing skin shedding and potentially leading to localised hair loss. The hair loss seen in the image is a result of the inflammatory response and excessive shedding of skin associated with this condition. While psoriasis can cause discomfort and hair loss, most patients can manage their symptoms effectively with medication and proper scalp care.
