LEARN ABOUT PSORIASIS
Of all autoimmune diseases, psoriasis is the most common with nearly 7.5 million Americans affected. You are not alone.
WHAT DOES PSORIASIS LOOK LIKE?
Generally, these are the major types of psoriasis you should know about.
PSORIASIS IS COMPLEX
While its precise cause is not fully understood, scientists know that the immune system and genes play key roles in its development.
Psoriasis is unpredictable. It may be limited to a few lesions or may involve moderate to large areas of skin. When less than 3% of the body is affected by psoriasis it’s considered mild, 3 to 10% is considered moderate, and more than 10% is considered severe.
(For most individuals, the palm of the hand is about the same as 1% of the skin surface.)**

WHAT ARE THE EMOTIONAL & PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF PSORIASIS?
Dermatologists treat the disease based on the severity of its symptoms, the psoriasis type, and the patient’s response to treatment. However, the severity of psoriasis can also be measured by how psoriasis affects the quality of life—a factor we know is just as important as any medical concern, even if it just affects a small area.
