Psoriasis

Psoriasis is characterized by scaly, red, itchy, rough raised skin on the scalp, elbows, knees, and folds of the body. Patients with psoriasis can experience itching, burning and stinging. It is important to seek the care of a dermatologist if you think you have psoriasis because it is often associated with diabetes, arthritis, heart disease and depression. If you develop a rash that will not go away with over the counter medication, you should see a dermatologist.
