Different Types Of Psoriasis

By: Amaechi Ekufu Home | Cancer | Skin-Cancer


Psoriasis is a skin disorder that affects the skin by leaving it thickly scaled, red- silvery colored, painful and itchy. It is caused by an inflammation in the skin cell by a default in the immune system causing new cells to grow rapidly and excessively in matter of days instead of weeks, accumulating with the old cells which normally will take weeks to shed off.

Psoriasis is mostly the inflammation of the white blood cell (also known as T cells). They grow faster and come up to the surface of the skin causing damage to the skin, nails and the joint. Primarily, psoriasis occurs in parts like; the elbow, knees, back, leg, feet and scalp. It is aggravated by stress, excessive alcohol consumption and smoking. There are also claims that it can be generic.

Some medical practitioners classify psoriasis to be eczema while some don't. There are several types of psoriasis:

1.Guttate psoriasis: - Characterized by multiple spotted psoriasis on the skin surface. Widely spread over body areas like; scalp and limb.

2.Pustular psoriasis: - this type of psoriasis comes with non infectious pus - bumps. It gives a red tender feel to the skin surrounding it. It can be found on the hands and feet and can have patches spread over the body.

3.Erythrodermic psoriasis:- this is a more painful disorder that is as a result of skin inflammation. It can be seen as it spreads over the entire body causing it to swell, itch and cause pain to the victim.

4.Flexural psoriasis: - is a disorder that occurs only on folded parts of the body. It is a shiny smooth dry patch on the skin. And they are commonly found on folded areas like; the groin, between the thighs and penis, in the arm pit etc

5.Plague psoriasis: - this is the first and most commonly seen forms of psoriasis. It affects a large number of psoriasis patients. Plague psoriasis are inflamed skin that appears to be scaly and looks silvery-whitish.
