Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin condition characterized by the rapid buildup of skin cells, resulting in thick, red patches covered with silvery scales. It is a non-contagious condition that can occur anywhere on the body but is most commonly found on the elbows, knees, scalp, and lower back. The exact cause of psoriasis is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic factors, immune system dysfunction, and environmental triggers.
