Causes of Psoriasis
Recent research indicates that some abnormality in the immune system is the key cause of psoriasis.
80% people having flare-ups report a recent emotional trauma. Such as a new job or the death of a loved one.
Most doctors believe such external stressors serve as triggers for an inherited defect in immune function.
Injured skin and certain drugs can aggravate psoriasis.
Psoriasis tends to run in families, but it may skip generations.
Psoriatic arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis is a form of arthritis that affects some people who have psoriasis.
Most people develop psoriasis first and are later diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis.
The joint problems can sometimes begin before skin lesions appear.
Joint pain, stiffness and swelling are the main symptoms of psoriatic arthritis.
They can affect any part of your body including your fingertips and spine.
They can range from relatively mild to severe.
