Psoriasis is an erythematous-desquamative dermatosis, that is, an inflammatory, non-contagious skin disease that occurs with areas of red, thickened skin (plaques), with whitish flaking scales, often itchy. However, psoriasis is not just a skin condition, but rather a chronic inflammatory condition characterised by an alteration of the immune system.
