PSORIASIS
Psoriasis is a skin condition within which skin cells grow too quickly. This accelerated growth results in thick, white, or red patches of skin. The size of the patches can vary and are typically located on the knees, elbows, scalp, hands, feet, genitals, or lower back. Psoriasis is chronic, genetic, non-contagious, but not life threatening. The specific cause or causes of Psoriasis is not fully understood, but there are factors that appear to contribute to the development of Psoriasis such as; genetics, an immune system dysfunction, existence in a cold dry climate, skin injuries, reaction to medications, infection, and high stress and anxiety.

According to the National Psoriasis Foundation, it is estimated that worldwide Psoriasis affects up to 3% of the population. In the United States approximately 2.5% of Americans suffer with Psoriasis.
