One of the most frequent skin diseases, characterized by flaky rashes of red, limited, with a predominant location in the joints and scalp, or common, until the entire skin is damaged, in some cases, and joint damage( arthropathic psoriasis).Sometimes there are rashes, which are bubbles with purulent contents. Often there are changes in the nails( for example, pinpoint impressions of the thimble type).Hair and mucous membranes in the vast majority of cases remain intact. The disease can occur at any age, but most often in the range of 10-30 years. Men and women suffer equally often. More about the symptoms, see here.
Treatment is aimed at correcting inflammatory and other skin changes. For this purpose, vitamin A and its derivatives, in particular tigazone, external agents containing 2-5% salicylic acid, 5-10% tar, 5-30% naftalan, psoriazine, antipsoriatikum and other drugs are used for this purpose. In the case of joint damage, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, crisanol, are used, in severe cases - methotrexate.
The causes of are unknown until the end, but nevertheless, a number of provoking factors can be identified.
1. Streptococcal infection.
2. Diseases of the endocrine system.
3. Mechanical damage to the skin.
4. Use of certain medicines( eg, hormones and interferon).
5. Stressful situations.
6. Alcoholism.
Manifestations of the disease - a rash in the form of plaques, pink, covered with silvery, flaky scales. Small plaques tend to merge. The most common location of plaques is the extensor surfaces of the arms and legs, the scalp, elbows and knee joints. After removing the scales, a damp surface is exposed.
Physicians classify psoriasis into the following:
• Exudative psoriasis.
• Common psoriasis.
• Arthropathic psoriasis.
• Psoriatic erythroderma.
• Pustular psoriasis.
• Exudative psoriasis.
Also psoriasis is classified by season:
1. autumn-winter form - exacerbations most often occur in autumn and winter;
2. Summer form - summer exacerbations are typical.
Diagnosis of the disease is carried out by a dermatologist. Indicative are the general analysis of blood and skin biopsy.
Treatment of the disease consists of local therapy and taking medications inside. The doctor assesses the form of the disease, the severity of the course, the prevalence of inflammation, as well as the sex and age of the patient. The most popular drugs containing hormones or salicylic acid, in the form of ointments locally on plaques.
Psoriasis is called squamous ringworm, an infectious chronic skin disease.
What's going on? In normal, healthy body, the dead skin layer is imperceptibly exfoliated. With psoriasis in lesions, cells begin to multiply at an increased rate, almost ten times faster than normal. Such swiftness leads to the fact that the old layer does not have time to retreat and accumulate, turning into plaques of silvery white color. Trying to get rid of plaques, the body includes protective mechanisms - damaged areas of the skin begin to actively peel, often causing itching. Favorite places of plaques are elbows and knees. Often, psoriasis chooses places of skin folds, hides on the head under the hair, appears on the face. Quite large flakes are falling from the affected areas. The most active manifestations of the disease fall on the skin, in more severe cases, fingernails are involved, sometimes joints are damaged. If the knee joints or small joints of the feet are damaged, it becomes painful to walk;when the elbow joints and the phalanges of the fingers are affected, the movements are also hampered. Psoriatic arthritis is a severe form of the disease and is not always accompanied by skin rashes. Severe forms include palmar-plantar rashes. Due to the fact that these surfaces are constantly in contact with shoes, objects, water, their treatment is delayed.
The causes of psoriasis are not exactly established, but one thing is certain: it is absolutely not contagious.
Psoriasis is most often "inherited", that is, manifested in those people whose parents are also psoriasis sufferers. Predisposition does not necessarily develop into a disease. The triggering mechanism is angina, stress, diabetes and obesity, decreased immunity and impaired liver function, as well as other factors. There are 2 age peaks, which account for the most frequent disease activity: 13-25 and 50-60 years.
The biggest problem of psoriasis is its persistent relapse. Very often psoriasis returns, regardless of the treatment used. Factors-provocators accelerating the return of psoriasis are singled out. It is primarily stresses, negative emotions and neuropsychic overloads. Another factor that provokes psoriasis to return is alcohol. And one more factor provocateur is cold.
Psoriasis affects 4% of the world's population. Most often - young people;according to statistics, 70% of cases have not yet reached the age of 20 years.
Psoriasis can affect any area of the skin. The nature of the papular( bubbly) psoriatic rash, located in the majority of patients symmetrically, mainly on the extensor surfaces of the extremities, is very diverse. Nails and the locomotor system are often affected.
The primary element is the epidermo-dermal papule( vesicle).It has a pink coloration of varying intensity: fresh elements of a brighter color( up to red), longer existing ones - more faded. The shape of the papules is flat, the surface is rough, covered with silvery-white( silvery color is associated with the presence of air bubbles) with pearly or small-plate scales that can be easily removed when scraped. On fresh papules, the scales are located in the center, and along their periphery there remains a narrow bright rim. Then the peeling increases, occupying the entire surface of the element.
In the beginning, papules with psoriasis have regular rounded outlines of 1 - 2 mm in diameter. As the process progresses, psoriatic papules spread around the periphery, increase, form plaques that often reach large sizes and have bizarre outlines. Often, the same patient is simultaneously observed papular elements of different sizes and psoriatic plaques.
What should I do? Treatment of psoriasis is carried out under the supervision of a dermatologist, who recommends individual procedures. It is useful to spend at least a month in the year in a hot climate. Very good treatment of psoriasis in the Dead Sea, where both use solar baths and sea mineral salts.
