| What is PSORIASIS? | A highly common skin condition, Psoriasis speeds up the life cycle of skin cells causing them to build up quickly and rapidly on the skin surface. It is a long-lasting autoimmune disease which causes red, itchy and scaly patches on the skin. The rapid proliferation of skin cells is often triggered by inflammatory chemicals produced by lymphocytes. Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition which periodically improves and worsens especially with change of season. |
