🌿💙 Understanding Psoriasis 💙🌿
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin condition that speeds up the life cycle of skin cells, causing red, itchy, and scaly patches that can appear anywhere on the body. It’s not contagious, but it can greatly affect a person’s physical comfort and emotional well-being.
🔍 Key Facts About Psoriasis:
✅ Can occur at any age, but often develops in adulthood
✅ Symptoms may flare up and subside over time
✅ Triggers include stress, infections, cold weather, and certain medications
✅ It’s linked to other health conditions like arthritis, diabetes, and heart disease
💡 Management Matters:
While there’s currently no cure, treatments can control symptoms—including topical creams, oral medications, light therapy, and lifestyle changes. Early consultation with a dermatologist is key to better management.
🤝 Let’s End the Stigma:
Psoriasis is a medical condition—not a result of poor hygiene. Support, understanding, and awareness can make a huge difference for those living with it.
