PSORIASIS

Psoriasis is a chronic, recurring skin disease, which can affects both sexes equally and which can vary from mild, occasional outbreaks to more severe cases of the condition. Psoriasis is caused by the cycle of skin cell renewal becoming accelerated, leading to an accumulation of dead skin cells on the surface. This shows up as red, sore-looking patches on the skin with silvery scales, occurring most commonly on the elbows, knees and scalp. In severe cases, larger areas of the body may be affected.

There is no absolute known cause for psoriasis, but there is a genetic component to the condition. It can appear for the first time at any age, but is more likely to appear between the ages of 11 and 45. It is important to note that psoriasis is not contagious, nor can it be transferred from one area of the body to another. Recent studies show that there may be an ethnic link. It seems that psoriasis is most common in Caucasians and slightly less common in African Americans. Worldwide, psoriasis is most common in Scandinavia and other parts of northern Europe. It appears to be far less common among Asians and is rare in Native Americans.
There also is a genetic component associated with psoriasis. Approximately one-third of people who develop psoriasis have at least one family member with the condition.

A child with one affected parent has a 15% chance of developing the disease and this rises to 50% if both the parents are affected. Therefore the children should be given special attention by keeping their skin slightly oily,avoid too much fried foods etc.
