Psoriasis on the LegsCategoriesPsoriasis Treatment

Psoriasis on the Legs: Symptoms, Treatment, and Management

Psoriasis on the Legs

Psoriasis on the legs is not a separate form of psoriasis. Still, many types of psoriasis, including plaque, inverse, guttate, pustular, erythrodermic, and psoriatic arthritis, can affect various regions of the legs like the knees, feet, groins, and thighs. Though this condition looks severe and infectious, it’s not contagious and won’t spread through any medium. The symptoms are usually flaky, itchy, inflamed, and cause skin discoloration.

Overview

Appearance of psoriasis on the legs

As many types of psoriasis can occur in the legs, their appearance changes for each type of psoriasis, such as inflammation, reddish patches, silvery plaques, or skin discoloration in brown, purple, or gray. Scratching of the affected areas due to excess itching may cause permanent scars on the skin. 

Symptoms

Let’s see how different types of psoriasis have different symptoms on the legs.

TypesSymptoms
Inverse PsoriasisThis type causes shiny, itchy, and reddish rashes in the skin fold area of the legs, i.e., the groins.
Erythrodermic psoriasisThis type is rare and severe and causes reddish, scaly, and itchy patches that are inflamed and spread to larger areas. It can occur in any part of the leg.
Guttate Psoriasis This type causes several drop-like, reddish lesions that can spread to any part of the legs. This condition usually occurs with a throat infection as the first sign.
Pustual PsoriasisThis type causes pus-filled bumps that can be itchy and painful. Mostly, it occurs in the feet but can also occur in other regions of the legs.
Psoriatic ArthritisThis is a dangerous type of psoriasis that causes excess swelling and inflammation with silvery scales in the joints of the legs. This condition develops severely over time and causes corrosion in the bones. This condition can be life-threatening if left untreated.

Causes and triggers

The exact cause of psoriasis on the legs has not been proven yet. However, the condition causes the immune system to overreact, which leads to the rapid production of new skin cells. For a healthy person, the skin cells usually shed and grow every 30 days. But for people with psoriasis, these new skin cells grow rapidly in 3 to 4 days. As the process is very quick, the dead skin cells accumulate on the surface of the skin in the legs instead of shedding. These accumulations affect the skin, causing psoriasis on the legs as inflammation, patches, flakes, scales, or plaques.

Other conditions that can trigger the growth of psoriasis on the legs are:

  • High dosages of certain medications
  • Overexposure to UV rays from the sun
  • Excess Stress
  • Hormonal changes
  • Allergic reactions from bacterial or viral infections
  • History of family genetics with psoriasis
  • Poor environmental factors
  • External injuries like wounds, cuts, burns, or insect bites
  • Consumption of alcohol and tobacco products.

Treatment for psoriasis on the legs

  • Topical Medicines: If you have small and less severe symptoms of psoriasis on the legs, doctors provide effective ointments like Xemsis or lotions and creams that have anti-inflammatory properties and reduce psoriatic symptoms. Oatmeal has excellent soothing properties and can be taken as an oatmeal bath to reduce the irritation caused by psoriasis on the legs.
  • Oral Drugs: If your symptoms are a little severe, doctors may provide medications containing methotrexate or immunosuppressants that have ingredients to calm down your psoriatic flare-ups. These medications may have complex dosages and side effects. So doctors may recommend avoiding some food types. It’s crucial to follow their guidelines.
  • Injections: To relieve you from excess pain and itching, doctors may recommend biological treatments or injections with antibiotics and pain medications.
  • Phototherapy: If your symptoms in the legs are fatal, doctors may recommend this phototherapy treatment. This treatment involves the process of passing ultraviolet lasers to your affected areas on the legs. The process is complex and may have some side effects.
  • Other than these, it is crucial to follow home remedies like maintaining a balanced diet, managing stress through meditation or yoga, and preferring acupuncture therapy with a licensed practitioner.

Summary

Psoriasis on the legs can be very challenging, affecting self-confidence and quality of life, depending on the type of psoriasis. Medications and treatments work in stages to relieve you of the condition. This condition can also be life-threatening if it is not treated properly. So it’s crucial to follow your doctor’s guidelines and stay positive.

Xemsis is an ointment formulated with effective natural ingredients after many years of research. It is prescribed by many dermatologists across India to treat psoriasis. Get relief from psoriatic symptoms in the legs today with Xemsis.

Genital psoriasis

Understanding Genital Psoriasis: Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment, and Prevention

Genital psoriasis is an inflammatory auto-immune condition that causes smooth, flaky, and itchy patches on and around the genital areas that are painful. This condition ranges from mild to severe and is more difficult to manage than other forms of psoriasis, as genital areas are usually moist and sensitive. Genital psoriasis usually looks like a sexually transmitted disease or yeast infection and may affect the love life of the affected person. However, if you and your partner are comfortable, you can engage in sexual activities. It’s not contagious and can be managed effectively with proper treatments.

Overview

What is genital psoriasis?

Genital psoriasis, also called vulvar, vaginal, or penile psoriasis, is a type of psoriasis that affects the genital areas like the groin, penis, vulva, creases between buttocks, pubis, and thighs. This condition is difficult to manage, so it is essential to consult a doctor.

Who gets genital psoriasis?

Mostly, genital psoriasis affects people who already have other forms of psoriasis. But it can also affect people of any age who are without psoriasis. Research says that 63% of people suffering from psoriasis get genital psoriasis at least once in their lifetime.

Is genital psoriasis the same as chronic psoriasis?

Chronic psoriasis is a common form of psoriasis, such as plaque psoriasis, that occurs in the skin as thick and scaly patches in various regions. Genetic psoriasis is a location-specific condition that occurs particularly in genital areas as shiny, flaky, and smooth patches. However, genital psoriasis is a form of chronic psoriasis that is slightly different from it in symptoms and treatments.

What’s the difference between genital psoriasis and eczema?

Both eczema and genital psoriasis cause similar symptoms of reddish and itchy patches on the skin. Eczema is a common condition that can affect any region of the body, including the genitals. Genital psoriasis is a specific form of psoriasis that affects only the genital regions.    Genital psoriasis mostly affects people who are already suffering from other forms of psoriasis, but eczema in the genital regions is mainly caused by genetics, poor environmental factors, or other infections. In terms of symptoms, genital psoriasis causes milder itching with a heavy burning sensation. On the other hand, eczema in genital regions causes only itching that is heavy and may even result in bleeding. It is very hard to differentiate these similar conditions on your own. Only experienced doctors can differentiate it thoroughly.

Symptoms and Causes

Genital psoriasis symptoms

Symptoms of genital psoriasis include:
  • Thin, shiny, and smooth silvery scales in genital regions.
  • The color of the affected skin is usually pink or red.
  • The affected areas are cracked, causing itching, burning, and discomfort.
  • Depending on the affected areas of the genital region, the skin may either be moist or dry.
  • The silvery scales shed off as skin in genital areas rubs against each other when we move.
As some other conditions, like eczema and microbial infections, cause similar types of symptoms, it’s essential to consult a doctor to identify the condition.

Causes of genital psoriasis

The exact cause of genital psoriasis has not been proven yet. However, having a family history of psoriasis can be transferred through genetics. Firstly, the immune system malfunctions in the body, attacking its healthy cells rapidly instead of foreign particles. This results in the rapid production of new skin cells, which grow faster than normal. So the body can’t shed dead cells as quickly as new cells grow. This results in the accumulation of dead cells that settle on the surface of the skin instead of shedding. The buildup of dead skin cells causes inflammation and forms psoriasis. Other than this, a lot of other conditions trigger genital psoriasis, including:
  • Overgrowth of yeast
  • Skin injuries or microbial infections
  • Friction from certain types of clothing fabrics
  • Obesity
  • Drinking too much alcohol
  • Smoking 
  • Poor environmental factors
  • Stress and
  • Certain medications.

Is genital psoriasis contagious?

No. Genital psoriasis isn’t contagious. However, it may look similar to other skin conditions, like sexually transmitted diseases, eczema, yeast, or microbial infections. So it is essential to consult your doctor to identify the condition and get advice from him about your sexual health.  

Diagnosis and Tests

How is genital psoriasis diagnosed?

Doctors usually identify psoriasis by looking at the symptoms and medical history of your genetics. But as genital psoriasis looks similar to many other skin conditions, doctors may do a skin biopsy test to identify the condition exactly. 

Management and Treatment

How do you get rid of genital psoriasis?

As the skin around genital areas is very sensitive, the treatment is usually different from other forms of psoriasis. 
  • Topical Medicines: Doctors provide effective ointments like xemsis, lotions, gels, or corticosteroid creams that reduce the inflammation of patches.
  • Oral Drugs: If your symptoms are uncontrolled, doctors may provide medications like cyclosporine or infliximab. These medications may have complex dosages and side effects if taken over the long term. So doctors may recommend avoiding some food types. It’s crucial to follow their guidelines.
  • Injections: To relieve you from excess pain and itching, doctors may recommend biological treatments or injections such as cyclosporine or methotrexate. These drugs have high dosages, so the medications should be followed only under the supervision of professional doctors.  

How soon after treatment will I feel better?

Genital psoriasis is a long-lasting condition that has no proven cure. Following the medications regularly will reduce the severity of the symptoms. The severity of the condition, skin sensitivity, dosage of medications, and underlying medical conditions, if any, will determine the effectiveness of treatment. Also, it’s important to follow your doctor’s guidelines for avoiding certain things.

Prevention

Can genital psoriasis be prevented?

There are no proven measures to prevent genital psoriasis. However, there are some ways to prevent new flare-ups.
  • Apply Xemsis regularly, as prescribed 
  • Maintaining a clean environment
  • Using mild and chemical-free soaps that are recommended by doctors
  • Moisturize your affected areas using pure coconut oil
  • Wearing loose-fit pants and underwear
  • Limiting shower times
  • Managing stress
  • Have a balanced diet with rich nutrients
  • Avoid consuming alcohol and tobacco products

Living With Genital Psoriasis

When should I see my doctor?

You should visit your doctor without fail if:
  • Your symptoms are getting worse day by day
  • You have severe pain and itching in the affected areas
  • You experience discomfort while using toilets or having sex
  • You are experiencing new medical conditions like nausea or fatigue.

What questions should I ask my doctor?

  • Ask about the potential triggers and risk factors associated with your condition
  • Ask about how you can manage your sexual activities. If you are comfortable, visit the doctor with your partner.
  • Ask how often you should take your medications
  • Ask about any possible side effects of your medications
  • Ask how you can change your lifestyle to treat your condition more effectively
  • Ask if there are any foods to be avoided
  • Ask about warning signs so that you can be cautious about your condition

Conclusion

Genital psoriasis is a long-lasting condition that affects the sensitive genital areas and impacts the quality of life. Treatments and medications work in stages to relieve you of the condition. You may feel low self-esteem and embarrassment in public places. However, consistency in following the doctor’s guidelines, following the preventive measures regularly, and keeping hope is the best option to overcome this psoriasis.

Erythrodermic PsoriasisCategoriespsoriasis type

Erythrodermic Psoriasis

Erythrodermic psoriasis is a rare but dangerous variant of psoriasis vulgaris that causes painful and itchy red, scaly patches to spread to larger areas of skin. The condition is chronic and inflammatory, which affects the body’s ability to control the temperature. If not treated properly, this condition can be life-threatening.

Overview

What is erythrodermic psoriasis?

Erythrodermic psoriasis is a harmful type of psoriasis that causes bright and burning plaques in various regions of the body. This condition also affects the immune system, which has a higher risk of developing other complications and risk factors like heart problems and pneumonia. 

The affected immune system alters the chemistry of the body and loses much-needed proteins and fluids from the body, which reduces the blood flow to the heart. If the heart doesn’t have enough blood to pump, it may fail the heart and kidney. It’s crucial to consult with doctors if you experience this condition.

How common is erythrodermic psoriasis?

Erythrodermic psoriasis is a rare type, affecting 2–3% of people with psoriasis. Also, 1 in 3 people with plaque psoriasis develop erythrodermic psoriasis. Most other forms of psoriasis are severe but not usually fatal. However, this erythrodermic psoriasis can get worse and be life-threatening if not treated properly. 

Symptoms and Causes

What are the causes of erythrodermic psoriasis?

The exact cause of erythrodermic psoriasis is not proven yet. Research is going on to find the exact cause of this condition. However, the chemical process behind the condition is that it causes the immune system to overreact, which leads to the rapid production of new skin cells. For a healthy person, the skin cells usually shed and grow every 30 days. But for people with erythrodermic psoriasis, these new skin cells grow rapidly in 3 to 4 days. 

The T-cells, which are responsible for attacking foreign particles in the body, malfunction and attack the healthy skin cells. As the process is very quick, the dead skin cells accumulate on the surface of the skin instead of shedding. These accumulations affect the skin, causing inflamed patches on the skin. This erythrodermic psoriasis can also easily develop from plaque psoriasis if that is not treated properly.

Other conditions that trigger erythrodermic psoriasis include:

  • History of family genetics with psoriasis
  • Overdosage of certain medications
  • Any severe infections from microbes
  • Excess stress
  • Severe sunburn
  • HIV
  • Substance abuse. 

Symptoms of erythrodermic psoriasis

  • Itchy and scaly red patches spread to various areas of the body
  • Extreme dehydration and fatigue
  • Chills and fever
  • Excess pain and burnt-looking skin
  • Affected areas peel off the skin in large pieces
  • Joint pain
  • Rapid heartbeat
  • Swelling in the lower legs and feet.

These symptoms may develop slowly or occur suddenly. Visit your doctor as soon as possible if you experience these kinds of symptoms during psoriasis.

Diagnosis and Tests

How is erythrodermic psoriasis diagnosed?

Initially, the doctor will examine your records, such as your family history, recent medications, the condition of your symptoms, your previous history of psoriasis, and infections. Then they may take a blood test to learn about your blood cells and electrolyte levels. Also, they do skin biopsy tests to confirm your condition and its severity. If erythrodermic psoriasis is confirmed, you may need to be admitted to the hospital for further treatment, as the condition is dangerous.

Management and Treatment

Erythrodermic psoriasis treatment

    • Topical Medicines: Doctors provide effective ointments like xemsis, lotions, or corticosteroid creams that soften your plaques and reduce inflammation.
    • Oral Drugs: If you have other complications with erythrodermic psoriasis, doctors may provide medications like NSAIDs, DMARDs, cyclosporine, acitretin, and etanercept that stop the immune system from attacking healthy cells and control new cell growth. These medications may have complex dosages and side effects. So doctors may recommend avoiding some food types. It’s crucial to follow their guidelines.
    • Injections: To relieve you from excess pain and itching, doctors may recommend biological treatments or injections with antibiotics and pain medications.
    • Stabilizing Treatments: If your physical condition is very ill with a huge loss of fluids and proteins, doctors may admit you to bed and inject IV fluids or electrolytes in your veins to make you stable.
    • People with HIV: Treating erythrodermic psoriasis in people with HIV is more complicated, as usual treatments will not be effective. So first, treatments like antiretroviral therapy may be given to people with HIV. 
    • Phototherapy: If your erythrodermic psoriasis symptoms are fatal, doctors may recommend this phototherapy treatment. This treatment involves the process of passing ultraviolet lasers to your affected areas. The process is complex and may have some side effects. 

Prevention

Can you prevent erythrodermic psoriasis?

There are no proven measures to prevent erythrodermic psoriasis. However, there are some ways to prevent new flare-ups.

  • Apply Xemsis regularly, as prescribed 
  • Avoid consuming alcohol and tobacco products
  • Manage stress with meditation and yoga
  • Protect your skin from external injuries like cuts, burns, infections, or wounds
  • Keep in touch with your healthcare provider
  • Don’t abruptly stop previous medications or try new medications. 
  • Eat a healthy diet and stay hydrated
  • Protect yourself from harsh weather, be it summer or winter.

Conclusion

Erythrodermic psoriasis can be very challenging, affecting your physical strength and appearance. Treating this type of psoriasis involves many trials and errors. You will need to change your lifestyle and take medications for long periods of time, as they work in stages to relieve you of the condition. This condition can be life-threatening if it is not treated properly. So it’s crucial to follow your doctor’s guidelines and stay positive.

Inverse PsoriasisCategoriesPsoriasis Treatment

Inverse Psoriasis

Inverse psoriasis, also known as intertriginous or flexural psoriasis, is a chronic auto-immune condition that causes reddish, shiny, and itchy rashes on skin folds where the skin rubs against each other, like armpits and groins. People often refer to this condition as hidden psoriasis because our clothes usually cover the skin folds.

Overview

What is Inverse Psoriasis?

Inverse psoriasis is a type of psoriasis that appears in the areas where the skin rubs against each other, including:

  • Armpits
  • Belly button and belly folds
  • Below the breasts
  • Groin
  • Around genitals
  • Between buttocks 
  • Abdomen
  • Neck folds

This condition is quite challenging, as the skin fold areas are sensitive. Because of the location, this condition may trigger yeast, fungal, or bacterial infections in affected areas. It also causes discomfort during sexual activities.

Symptoms

Symptoms of inverse psoriasis include:

  • Smooth and shiny, discolored rashes in red, brown, purple, or pink according to the skin color.
  • Fissures (cracks) in genital regions
  • Excess itching in the affected areas
  • Rashes that are moist and damp
  • Foul smell in affected regions
  • Swelling
  • Soreness when touched 
  • Irritation due to sweating
  • Inflammation.

These symptoms are usually painful and may bleed as the skin folds are very tender and sensitive. This condition of inverse psoriasis is complicated and challenging, which hurts the quality of life.

Causes

Inverse psoriasis is categorized as an immune-mediated disorder, so its exact cause has not been found yet. However, after getting affected by the condition, it causes the immune system to overreact, which leads to the rapid production of new skin cells. For a healthy person, the skin cells usually shed and grow every 30 days. But for people with inverse psoriasis, these new skin cells grow rapidly in 3 to 4 days. As the process is very quick, the dead skin cells accumulate on the surface of the skin instead of shedding. These accumulations affect the skin, causing psoriatic rashes. Also, 21–30% of people suffering from other forms of psoriasis develop this inverse psoriasis.

Who does inverse psoriasis affect?

Inverse psoriasis can affect people of any age, but adults are more likely to be affected as immune systems get weaker as people get older. 

Also, inverse psoriasis can be triggered in people with:

  • Genetics of family members with psoriasis
  • Skin injuries like cuts, wounds, or scrapes
  • Excess stress and tension
  • Overdosage of certain high-dose medications
  • The habit of smoking tobacco products
  • Excess fat and obesity
  • The habit of consuming excess alcohol
  • Skin infections from bacteria, fungus, or yeast

Difference between psoriasis and inverse psoriasis?

        Factors

                     Psoriasis                   Inverse Psoriasis

       

      Condition

Psoriasis is an auto-immune disease where the body’s immune system attacks its cells, mistaking them for foreign cells.Inverse psoriasis is the same auto-immune disease as a type of psoriasis. But its many characteristics differ from those of psoriasis.
         FormsIt is a common form that has many types and affects various parts of the body.This is a type of psoriasis that primarily affects the skin folds.
       CausesNot scientifically proven yet, but may be triggered by various factors.Not scientifically proven yet, but may be triggered by various factors.
      SymptomsIt usually causes reddish and slivery scaly plaque that is thick and inflamed. The affected areas experience excess itching, burning, and swelling.Despite being a type of psoriasis, this condition occurs in the skin folds that are usually moist. The affected areas will have rashes that are shiny, smooth, and more prone to irritation.
 Common AreasAs a common form of all types, it can occur in any part, like the scalp, joints, nails, or lower back.It occurs only in the skin folds, where the skin rubs against each other. Common areas are the buttocks, armpits, groins, neck folds, and under breasts.
       TriggersStress, skin injuries, infections, and high-dosage medications are the most common triggers.It can also be triggered by the triggers of psoriasis, but being in skin folds, sweating, and friction in skin folds trigger this condition the most.
  Mostly AffectsThis can affect people of any age, but it mostly occurs in people aged 15–35.This condition mostly affects older adults who have a weaker immune system.
   ComplicationsIn the worst case of this condition, psoriasis may develop into psoriatic arthritis, which causes the loss of affected bones and may become life-threatening if not diagnosed properly.This condition may allow various other infections from bacteria, viruses, fungi, or yeast.

How does inverse psoriasis impact daily life?

  • As this condition occurs in sensitive areas of the skin, it causes discomfort even during routine physical activities like walking and driving.
  • Wearing our favorite clothes of our choice cannot be done as tightly, and certain fabrics may worsen the condition.
  • Affecting sensitive areas of skin, people with this condition may feel low self-esteem and embarrassment.
  • The chronic nature of this condition may lead to anxiety and stress for the affected people.

Management and Treatment

Can inverse psoriasis go away?

Inverse psoriasis is a chronic condition that has no scientifically proven cure. The affected people may experience the symptoms disappearing and flaring up again. A doctor’s prescription may provide relief from the symptoms.

What medications or treatments are used?

    • Topical Medicines: If you have mild rashes, doctors provide effective ointments like xemsis, lotions, or corticosteroid creams that reduce swelling and inflammation. 
    • Oral Drugs: If your rashes are a little severe, doctors may provide medications containing acitretin, methotrexate, or apremilast that are effective in treating the symptoms. These medications may have complex dosages and side effects. So doctors may recommend avoiding some food types. It’s crucial to follow their guidelines.
    • Injections: If your symptoms are severe and painful, doctors may recommend biological treatments or injections like adalimumab, etanercept, or infliximab. These injections may reduce the pain and severity of the condition.
    • Phototherapy: If your inverse psoriasis symptoms are very severe, doctors may recommend this phototherapy treatment. This treatment involves the process of passing ultraviolet lasers to your affected areas. The process is complex and may have some side effects. It is recommended only for severe cases of psoriasis. 

Home Remedies and Prevention

  • Bathing in oatmeal mixed with lukewarm water provides relief from irritation caused by inverse psoriasis. However, the bathing time should be limited, as showering too long will inflame the affected skin more.
  • Use mild soaps recommended by your doctor.
  • Wear loose, cotton clothes that allow the affected areas to breathe.
  • Apply pure coconut oil along with your ointments to keep the skin hydrated and reduce inflammation.
  • You can ask your doctor to prescribe medicinal powder so that it can be used in the affected areas of skin folds to absorb the moisture.
  • Engage in physical activities and avoid stress.
  • Follow a healthy lifestyle and keep your surroundings free from dirt and microbes.
  • Applying pure turmeric paste to the affected areas helps reduce inflammation, as turmeric has rich anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Patients with inverse psoriasis have a higher risk of developing other complications like diabetes, cardiovascular problems, obesity, or stroke. So these patients must keep in touch with doctors regularly.

Conclusion

Inverse psoriasis is a long-lasting condition that comes and goes throughout life. Affecting sensitive areas, this type of psoriasis impacts the quality of life. Treatments and medications work in stages to relieve you of the condition. Consistency in following the doctor’s guidelines and keeping hope is the best option to overcome this psoriasis.

Pustular PsoriasisCategoriespsoriasis type

Pustular Psoriasis

Pustular psoriasis is a form of psoriasis that affects 3% of people living with other types of psoriasis. This pustular psoriasis is a chronic auto-immune condition that is considered a variant of psoriatic vulgaris and can occur in any part of the body, causing pus-filled bumps on the affected areas.

Overview

What is Pustular Psoriasis?

Pustular psoriasis is an autoimmune condition formed when the body’s immune system releases white blood cells that attack the body’s cells by mistake, judging them as foreign objects. The dead cells accumulate at the skin’s surface instead of shedding, forming scaly pus-filled bumps that cause pain and itching.

Pustular Psoriasis Symptoms

Pustular psoriasis causes widespread blisters, i.e., bumps, surrounded by red skin. It can occur in any part, but mostly in the hands and feet. The bumps usually occur in a particular part and rarely spread throughout the body. When it occurs in a particular part, like the hand, the severity is comparatively low compared to the spread. This condition can affect people of any age, but it mostly affects adults rather than children.

In this case, the bumps are usually:

  • Thick
  • Scaly
  • Flaky
  • Filled with pus
  • In yellow or white colors. 

The affected area may cause itching or mild pain in the area. 

However, if the bumps spread and cover large areas with severity, the condition is termed generalized pustular psoriasis. This case is rare but very serious. 

This condition causes: 

  • Fever
  • Chills
  • Muscle weakness
  • Severe pain or itching
  • Fatigue
  • Increased heartbeat
  • Dehydration
  • Swelling of affected areas

Contact your doctor as soon as possible if you experience any of these pustular psoriasis symptoms.

Causes of Pustular Psoriasis 

The exact cause of pustular psoriasis has not been proven yet. But many conditions trigger it. The trigger makes the immune system attack the body’s cells that accumulate on the surface of the skin as bumps and blisters, which are the initial cause of pustular psoriasis. Developing this type of psoriasis from other forms, like plaque psoriasis, is very rare. These symptoms are not caused by any bacteria or fungus, so they are not contagious.

Other conditions that can trigger the growth of pustular psoriasis are:

  • High-dosage medications
  • Overexposure to UV rays from the sun
  • Stress
  • Hormonal changes
  • Allergic reactions 
  • Bacterial or viral infections
  • Genetics
  • Poor environmental factors.

In very rare cases, when genes named IL36RN and CARD14 get mutated, it may result in flare-ups and the development of pustular psoriasis.

How to Cure Pustular Psoriasis

While pustular psoriasis is chronic and there is no proven cure, some medications, treatments, and self-care are recommended by doctors to get relief from the condition and reduce the formation of flare-ups. Initially, the doctor may examine your condition thoroughly and take your blood samples for testing to understand the severity of your condition.

The doctors then prescribe solutions according to the severity of your pustular psoriasis symptoms, which include:

    • Topical Medicines: Doctors provide effective ointments like Xemsis that soften your plaques and reduce inflammation. It is formulated with 100% pure natural ingredients and has no side effects.
  • Oral Drugs: If your symptoms are a little severe, doctors may provide medications containing cyclosporine, methotrexate, or acitretin that have vitamin A and other ingredients to calm down your psoriatic flare-ups. These medications may have complex dosages and side effects. So doctors may recommend avoiding some food types. It’s crucial to follow their guidelines.
  • Phototherapy: If your pustular psoriasis symptoms are very severe and spread to larger areas, doctors may recommend this phototherapy treatment. This treatment involves the process of passing ultraviolet lasers to your affected areas. The process is complex and may have some side effects. It is recommended only for severe cases of pustular psoriasis. 

There are also some preventive measures to reduce irritation and prevent new flare-ups:

  • Stress: Stress worsens the symptoms of psoriasis, and it is essential to manage it.
  • External Injury: New psoriatic flare-ups may arise in psoriatic patients even with mild external injuries, like a cut during a shave. So it’s important to stay safe from these kinds of injuries.
  • Alcohol and Smoking: Consuming alcohol and smoking tobacco products slows down the effectiveness of psoriatic medications. It’s best to avoid these things if you are affected by psoriasis.
  • Quick Showers: Taking a shower for a long time causes psoriatic inflammation to further worsen. So it is recommended to take a bath quickly, in 10–15 minutes.
  • Stay Hygienic: Pollution, dirt, and micro-organisms further trigger the symptoms of psoriasis. So it’s best to stay hygienic by washing hands often, maintaining a clean living environment, and staying as clean as possible.
  • Moisturize: Use doctor-prescribed moisturizers regularly to improve dryness and irritation caused by psoriatic flare-ups and help smooth the skin.

Types of Pustular Psoriasis

Pustular psoriasis occurs in various forms in terms of severity and blister breakouts. Each type needs different types of treatment and care.

  • Generalized: Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare and serious form of psoriasis. In this condition, the blisters break out severely, causing extreme redness, pain, itching, and swelling. The symptoms spread to a large area of the body with the rapid popping of pus-filled blisters. It also causes fatigue, chills, fever, nausea, headaches, joint pain, weight loss, weakened muscles, or an increased heart rate. It is recommended to consult with a doctor as soon as possible if any of these symptoms occur.
  • Localized: This form of psoriasis occurs only in particular parts, usually the hands and feet. Its severity is less compared to the generalized and occurs in two types, namely palmoplantar and acrodermatitis.
  1. Palmoplantar psoriasis (PPP): This type of localized psoriasis causes blisters in the palms and soles of the feet. The bumps may turn brown and peel off. Most commonly, this type affects the base of the thumb and the side of the heel. It usually goes away and comes back by itself.
  2. Acrodermatitis Continua of Hallopeau (ACH): This type of localized psoriasis causes minor yet painful blisters in the tips of fingers and toes, mostly in nails. Affected fingers or toes may experience difficulty moving and using them.

Conclusion

Treatments and medications for less severe pustular psoriasis may take a couple of weeks to several months to cure, according to the condition and body type. The treatments for this type of psoriasis usually work in stages to clear the blisters. However, if the condition is severe, it may last longer despite medications causing irritation, frustration, and low self-esteem. Consistency in following the doctor’s guidelines and keeping hope is the best option to overcome psoriasis.

Guttate PsoriasisCategoriespsoriasis type

Guttate Psoriasis

Guttate psoriasis is a type of psoriasis that causes several drop-like red lesions on any part of the body. The word ‘Gutta’ is derived from a Latin word that means ‘Drops’. This guttate psoriasis usually shows its first signs as a streptococcal infection in the throat, such as soreness and strep throat. This type of psoriasis can affect people of any age, is usually not contagious, and is not as severe as other types of psoriasis. Also, this type is not common and affects only 8% of people who are living with psoriasis.

Overview

What is guttate psoriasis?

Like other types of psoriasis, guttate psoriasis is also an autoimmune condition caused when the body’s immune system attacks its own cells, mistaking them for foreign particles. Usually, this type of psoriasis goes away on its own. But in some cases, it may cause several flare-ups and become chronic. So it’s essential to contact your doctor if you experience this condition.

Who gets guttate psoriasis?

Guttate psoriasis mostly affects children and young adults aged 30 or younger. But it doesn’t mean others won’t get it. It can sometimes affect older people too. Gender or race is not a barrier for this type of psoriasis to spread.

Is guttate psoriasis the same as chronic psoriasis?

In most cases, guttate psoriasis is not chronic and goes away on its own, leaving no scars. But it is recommended that you visit your doctor if you have this condition. In some cases, this type of infection may cause several flare-ups and inflammation, developing into chronic psoriasis. 

Symptoms and Causes

Symptoms 

  • Guttate psoriasis usually causes tear-drop-shaped pink or red patches in the skin and can spread to any part of the body.
  • The affected parts experience itching throughout the area.
  • The patches are not as thick as in other types of psoriasis but may be covered with silvery and flaky scales.
  • These guttate psoriasis symptoms are not severe, and in rare cases, they may develop into other forms of severe psoriasis.

Does guttate psoriasis happen in stages?

Guttate psoriasis usually doesn’t progress in stages and will develop anytime after a bacterial infection, mostly with streptococcal infection. Firstly, the infection causes soreness or strep in the throat. Then it will develop into teardrop-shaped patches. The symptoms are usually not serious, but in rare cases, they may become severe with inflammation.

Causes

  • Genes: Psoriasis is strongly associated with genes that can be transmitted by the genetics of family members with a history of psoriatic symptoms.
  • Bacterial Infections: Any type of bacterial infection can develop guttate psoriasis. However, bacteria named streptococci are the main culprits that develop this type of psoriasis. 
  • Triggers: Other than these, factors like sinusitis, flu, tonsillitis, stress, external wounds and burns, and certain medications can trigger this type of psoriasis.

Is guttate psoriasis contagious?

Contagion factors in this type of psoriasis are a little complicated. All types of psoriasis are non-contagious, but the bacterial infection from which guttate psoriasis develops is contagious. In simple words, the red patches caused by this type of psoriasis are non-contagious, but the bacterial infection that causes sores and strep throat is contagious.

Diagnosis and Tests

How is guttate psoriasis diagnosed?

  • Skin Biopsy: In this procedure, the doctor will remove a small piece of your affected skin in the lab and test it with a microscope. This process is to identify how severe the condition is and if there are any other complications, like skin cancer or eczema. This procedure is recommended only if there is excess itching or burning from guttate psoriasis.
  • Throat Swab Culture: In this laboratory process, the doctor will make the patient open the mouth as wide as possible, press down the tongue with a depressor, and place a special cup called culture around the tonsils of the throat to collect the samples. Then the samples are tested with a microscope to determine the severity of guttate psoriasis.
  • Blood Test: Your doctor may take your blood sample to test for recent bacterial and fungal infections that have affected your body.

Management and Treatment

How is guttate psoriasis treated?

Usually, guttate psoriasis is found in three stages:

  • Mild: A few spots that are spread on the skin. This mild case doesn’t need any special treatment and will go away by itself.
  • Moderate: The spots cover some extended areas of the skin. This condition won’t need laboratory treatments and can be treated with ointments and creams.
  • Severe: The spots are spread to larger areas of skin or the entire body. In these cases, specialized laboratory treatments will be recommended by the doctor. 

The treatments for guttate psoriasis include:

  • Xemsis: Formulated with the purest natural ingredients, this ointment can be effective for all types of skin conditions without any side effects.
  • Emollients: Doctors may provide moisturizers, creams, soaps, or lotions that have coal tar, Vitamin D, and anti-inflammatory properties for mild conditions.
  • Medications: Doctors may prescribe oral drugs with vitamin A, biological medications, or immunosuppressive drugs for more widespread spots that cause excess itching or burning.
  • Phototherapy: If guttate psoriasis is very severe with excess inflammation and turning into chronic psoriasis, doctors may provide ultraviolet laser therapy. The therapy is effective but has some side effects. Doctors prescribe it only for severe cases of psoriasis.

Prevention

Can guttate psoriasis be prevented?

Unfortunately, there are no proven measures to prevent guttate psoriasis. As it is caused by a bacterial infection, there are some common measures to prevent bacterial and viral infections.

  • Wash your hands often with sanitizer to prevent the spread of microorganisms.
  • Eat a healthy diet with more vegetables, fruits, grains, and proteins that support your immune system.
  • Engage in physical activities like yoga and exercise regularly to boost your immunity.
  • Get an adequate amount of sleep in a scheduled manner to maintain proper body function.
  • Try to reduce your stress by involving yourself in meditation or other relaxation techniques. Excess stress can trigger multiple problems in your body.
  • Avoid consuming excess alcohol and tobacco products.

Conclusion

Guttate psoriasis usually isn’t as dangerous as other types of psoriasis and will mostly go away on its own. Only in rare cases does this type of psoriasis develop into other serious forms of psoriasis. With proper health care and lifestyle, we can escape any type of infection from microbes. Xemsis is formulated to provide effective relief for all forms of psoriasis and skin infections. Together, we can beat psoriasis out of this world.

What is psoriasis, causes, triggers, symptoms, treatments

What is psoriasis?

Psoriasis is an auto-immune skin condition that occurs in the skin and causes irritation and discomfort. With this disease, the skin appears thick with scaly patches along with redness. This happens due to the active immune system, which speeds up skin cell growth. For a normal person, skin cells completely grow and fall off in a month, but for a person with psoriasis, the skin grows in a period of 3 to 4 days, and instead of shedding, the skin accumulates and piles up on the surface of the skin.

Psoriasis is not only about the skin condition; the person with psoriasis may also experience many other health conditions. Mental health problems as well as physical health problems. One in three people with psoriasis is likely to develop psoriasis arthritis. 

Psoriasis doesn’t affect people in particular; it affects people of all ages, including kids. Psoriasis is caused only by genes or an imbalance in immunity, not through physical contact. Psoriasis is not contagious. 

In this blog, let us know about the causes and triggers of psoriasis, along with the available treatments.

Psoriasis Causes and triggers

The exact cause and triggers of psoriasis can’t be determined, as they differ from person to person and are never the same. Here are some major factors that are commonly the reason for psoriasis.

  • Immunity
  • Genetics
  • Cuts and injuries
  • Environmental factors
  • Infections or medications

Triggers

  • Stress
  • Alcohol and smoking
  • Weather
  • Medications
  • Certain foods 

(Kindly check out our other blog, Foods to avoid with psoriasis to learn more about foods that need to be avoided to manage psoriasis.)

Psoriasis Symptoms

  • Redness and dryness
  • Scaly patches
  • Itchy and cracked skin
  • Discoloration in nails
  • Swollen and painful joints
  • Fatigue and throat infection

Psoriasis Treatments

Treatments are determined by the type and severity of your psoriasis and the area of the skin affected. The initial stage of psoriasis includes topical treatments, including creams, oils, and ointments to be applied to the infected areas of the skin. 

1. Topical creams

Topical creams include moisturising creams, steroid ointments, vitamin D gel, coal tar, and more. With all these creams, it will take at least 6 to 8 weeks to see slight changes in the skin. People are supposed to continually buy and use the cream, hoping for good results, which are not assured.

2. Phototherapy

Phototherapy treatments include the use of natural as well as artificial lights to treat psoriasis. This is used for psoriasis patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. Light therapy includes ultraviolet B phototherapy, psoralen plus ultraviolet A, sunlight therapy, Goeckerman therapy, exclaser laser, etc.

Those treatments are temporary cures and are very costly. Through these treatments, the cells are killed, which helps you get normal skin for a short period of time. The issue with this treatment is that light therapy must be provided consistently; otherwise, some patients may experience psoriasis that is twice as severe. Some of the adverse effects of this light therapy include skin damage and the potential for other body parts to be affected if not managed appropriately.     

3. Oral medications and injections

If none of the treatments give you a hand, then oral medications and injections are the last set of treatment plans the doctor prescribes for you. Oral medications and injections include steroids, retinoids, biological treatments, and other drugs. The use of these drugs is extremely dangerous because, once taken, the user must constantly seek out the next dosage, which is typically higher and harmful to health.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

4. Psoriasis ointment

Xemsis is an ointment composed of natural ingredients extracted using a unique photogenic process that only extracts the nutritional portion of the oil that is mixed using a layering technique. It helps you get instant relief from itching and prevents skin growth and the layering of skin deposits. This ointment is free from steroids, parabens, or toxins, so xemsis turns into a healthy substitute when compared to other available treatments.

A Revolution in Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a skin disorder that can occur for a variety of reasons, regardless of age, or gender. This skin disorder has been sourced over the history of time and has been misunderstood. Over the years of research and technological advancement, the understanding has significantly changed. In this blog, we will go back in time on the blog, contrasting historical views of psoriasis with the state of knowledge and available treatments today.

Beginning Psoriasis

Psoriasis was misinterpreted and the subject of many myths and misconceptions in the past. The beliefs that society had about psoriasis were based on a lack of medical understanding and denoted as god’s punishment due to the sin they caused. The individuals who faced this were subjected to social stigma and discrimination.

The 19th and early 20th centuries witnessed significant changes in the field of medicine, which improved the knowledge of psoriasis as an immune-mediated condition. However, the available treatments were very few and sometimes ineffective. These treatments ranged from basic superficial therapies peeling the skin with a knife to direct sunlight exposure.

Present Psoriasis

The understanding of psoriasis has increased among people. Research has shown that the immune system of a person plays a major role in the development of extra skin cells which leads to psoriasis. It is now known that lifestyle choices, environmental triggers, genetic factors, smoking, consumption of alcohol, skin infections and stress all have a part in bringing up psoriasis.

A Revolution in Psoriasis - xemsis

Technological advancement

Due to technological advancements in the field of medicine, the biological processes behind psoriasis have been identified and explained by researchers, which includes genetic testing and immunological tests. With greater knowledge at hand, customized medicines are now possible, providing more accurate and successful psoriasis treatment choices.

Historical treatments including direct exposure of the skin or applying homemade medicines were not very effective while modern medicine is such a relief to psoriatic sufferers. The choices that are now available include biological products, oral medicines, phototherapy, and cosmetic therapies. By concentrating specifically on immune system components that lead to psoriasis symptoms, doctors provide a unique treatment method.

Psychosocial Aspects

People are now aware of the psychosocial impacts of psoriasis. Awareness has been spreading and judgements have been reduced significantly, people started to come out and open up about psoriasis. Due to the spreading of psoriasis awareness, mental health services, and support groups, there is a development in the community which has become more accepting and understanding.

Conclusion

Research regarding psoriasis treatment will hopefully include more specialized and focused treatments in the future. This changing environment not only improves the lives of psoriasis sufferers but also highlights the understanding in the search for a higher standard of living. 

In the journey from historical misunderstandings to modern advancements in psoriasis care, Xemex stands out with its new product, Xemsis. Xemsis, a product created especially for psoriasis patients, offers quick relief and a cure in just seven days. This shows Xemex’s dedication to bettering the quality of life for psoriasis sufferers. The launch of Xemsis, which combines medical advancement with remedies, is a huge development. Xemex’s commitment to excellence indicates a brighter psoriasis-free future in which fast and effective medical care will be breaking the barriers.
