It's sad, but it's a fact: no one is immune to psoriasis. At some point, the body "fails" - and nasty flaky patches and spots appear on the skin. Especially if there is a genetic predisposition to the disease. While the disease isn't fatal, it can cause a lot of cosmetic discomfort - you've always got to think about how to dress to hide skin imperfections. What can we say about complications in the personal lives of patients with psoriasis!
Typically, the "attack" of chronic dermatitis, as psoriasis may be, are the folds of the knees and elbows, the scalp, and the back.
In modern medicine, many methods have been born and used to treat psoriasis, but there is no method to completely cure this dangerous disease.
