Nail Psoriasis – It’s Not Only on the Skin
Psoriasis is commonly associated with the skin, but many people don’t realize that it can also affect the nails. Nail psoriasis may cause symptoms such as pitting (small dents), discoloration, thickening, separation of the nail from the nail bed, or brittle nails.
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition in which the immune system speeds up the growth cycle of skin cells. The exact cause isn’t fully known, but it is linked to genetics, immune system dysfunction, stress, infections, and certain medications.
Regular nail care and professional visits are very important. Routine nail cleaning, monitoring, and proper treatment can help manage symptoms, prevent complications, and keep the nails healthier.
If you notice unusual changes in your nails, don’t ignore them. Early care and consistent treatments can make a big difference.
✨ Healthy nails start with awareness and regular care.
