Psoriasis Skin Inflammation

           Psoriasis is a skin rash that is often confused with eczema. Both psoriasis and eczema are skin infections. Both itch, irritate and hurt.
           

            Severe psoriatic cases can be extremely painful. The pain and inflammation is often stinging and burning.       


            Even though, they have many similarities, they also have unique traits. Thanks to these unique traits, you can precisely identify each skin infection.


            Psoriatic plaques tend to occur outside skin joints e.g. in front of the knees and behind elbows. Eczema rashes tend to occur inside skin joints e.g. behind the knees and inside the elbows.

            Psoriatic plaques are slightly raised above the surrounding skin. Eczema rashes tend to be flat. They are at the same level as the rest of the skin.


            Psoriatic plaques occur within clear-cut boundaries. Eczema rashes are more spread out. They do not have any clear edges.


            Psoriatic plaques have red, white and silvery hues. Eczema rashes are lighter than the rest of the skin.


            There are five types of psoriatic infections: plaque, guttate, inverse, pustular and erythrodermic.



Plaque Psoriasis

            Psoriatic plaques are the predominant form of this disease. They affect about 80 to 90% of psoriatic patients. The scales of psoriatic plaques appear as white, red and silvery patches.


            Psoriatic plaques can occur on any body part or they may affect the whole body. Some body parts are favoured by psoriatic plaques. The most favoured body parts include: the knees, the elbows, the face, scalp, genitals, skin folds, lower back, fingernails, toenails, palms of hand and soles of feet.



Guttate Psoriasis

            Guttate psoriasis is less common. Less than 2% of psoriatic cases are concerned with guttate rashes. It mostly occurs in children and adults less than 30years old.


            Guttate flakes are small, raindrop-like, salmon-pink papules. They often occur on the trunk, lower back, thighs, scalp and the proximal extremities.  


            Factors likely to trigger a guttate psoriatic flare include: stress, certain drugs, skin injury and streptococcus. In children, guttate flakes are often preceded by strep throat or streptococcus infection. Perianal skin and streptococcus perianal dermatitis, in children have been linked with the outbreak of guttate flares.  


Inverse or Flexural Psoriasis

            Inverse psoriatic flares develop in skin folds where skin touches skin. Prominent locations of inverse psoriatic patches are the armpits, umbilicus, gluteal cleft, groins, genitals and buttocks. In women, they also develop under the breasts.


            They appear as smooth, shiny red patches. The area, in which, they occur is often very sore.


            The sweat in skin folds is responsible for the shiny red hue. Flexural flares are the only psoriatic type that affects humid skin.


            The itchiness of flexural flares can be very irritating; especially when, they occur in sensitive locations like the genitals. Scratching infected locations only serve to exacerbate the irritation.


Pustular Psoriasis

            Psoriatic pustules are pus-filled bumps containing a yellowish white liquid. Sometimes, they appear red because the base is congested with inflamed blood vessels. They often occur around the hands and feet.


            Psoriatic pustules can be pretty serious and life-threatening. When they cover a large skin surface, they impede the skin’s ability to regulate the body’s temperature. You need to consult a doctor as soon as possible, if psoriatic pustules cover more than 10% of your body surface.
