Psoriasis is characterized by an abnormally excessive and rapid growth of the epidermal layer of the skin. Abnormal production of skin cells (especially during wound repair) and an overabundance of skin cells result from the sequence of pathological events in psoriasis.
Psoriasis develops when the immune system turns against the body and attacks the skin and sometimes the joints. This process is called autoimmunity. Psoriasis causes red, thick, scaly patches on the skin called plaque-type psoriasis, and it is the most common type. The plaques can occur anywhere but often appear on knees, elbows, scalp, hands, feet, and lower back. Psoriasis lesions can itch, sting, burn, or simply hurt. In some cases, they can also cause people intense anxiety.
