Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that affects two to three per cent of the population. Most men first develop it between the ages of 11 and 45.

The rash can be very uncomfortable and itchy. It usually appears on the knees, elbows or scalp, but can appear anywhere on the body.

No one knows precisely what causes psoriasis, but it does tend to run in families. It often seems to be triggered by any of the following:
A sore throat or chest infection
Burns, sunburn or other skin injury
A stressful life event such as an exam, relationship problems or bereavement.

Although there is no cure for psoriasis, there are many creams and lotions available from your pharmacist which can ease your discomfort.
