Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a skin disease marked by scaly patches of redness on the epidermis. For those with arthritis, psoriasis can also accompany joint pain. In men, psoriasis may appear in the genitals. Psoriasis of the entire body is a serious condition that must be treated at the hospital, whereas milder forms can be treated by cortisone creams, sunlight, or oatmeal baths.
