Psoriasis Treatment
For most people, psoriasis treatment consists of topical treatment, light therapy, and medicine. As this eMedTV page explains, the correct combination is often found through trial and error. This page discusses each treatment for psoriasis in detail.
Psoriassis
Psoriasis is a chronic disorder characterized by scaling and swelling of the skin. This eMedTV resource describes why psoriasis occurs and explains what factors can worsen this skin disease. Psoriassis is a common misspelling of psoriasis.
Psoriatic Arthritis
In someone with psoriatic arthritis, the joints (and sometimes other areas of the body) become inflamed. This eMedTV page gives an overview of this condition, noting in particular who it affects and how often it occurs, as well as possible symptoms.
Psoriatic Arthritis Causes
As this eMedTV page explains, scientists think that psoriatic arthritis is caused by a combination of factors (such as environmental, genetic, and immune system factors), but they don't know how these possible psoriatic arthritis causes tie together.
Psoriatic Arthritis Diagnosis
This eMedTV Web page describes some tests a doctor may use to make a psoriatic arthritis diagnosis (such as taking a medical history or x-rays), as well as conditions that can share similar symptoms with psoriatic arthritis (such as gout).
