Psoriasis is non-contagious but can be a life-long skin disease that appears on the skin as little red patches or even lesions which are usually covered by a buildup of dead cells which are white in color. These will normally look as scales on the skin  surface. The scaling covering the red lesions for someone suffering from psoriasis will become more apparent when they are scratched or scraped.

The cause of psoriasis remains a mystery although certain conditions do aggravate it such as the cold conditions. There has been some extensive research into the condition which has significantly improved our understanding of the condition. According to the most recent research, psoriasis seems to result from an abnormality in the white blood cells which in the end trigger an inflammation of the skin.

The causes for this abnormality in the red blood cells are multifactorial. Apart from the genetic tendencies, evidenced based research has also unveiled other possible causes stress, food allergens, use of certain drugs, environmental allergens, drugs, systemic illness and even skin trauma many of which will coalesce to create the altered immunity that triggers psoriasis.
