The Psoriasis Explained Clearly Chart provides comprehensive education about this chronic autoimmune skin condition affecting 2-3% of the global population. This medically accurate resource covers disease mechanisms, symptoms, triggers, complications, and treatment options for patients, healthcare providers, and caregivers.
Psoriasis causes rapid skin cell turnover through mistaken immune system attacks on healthy skin cells. It's not contagious, often appears between ages 15-35, has genetic predisposition in 40% of cases, and follows chronic cycles of flare-ups and remission.

Severity is classified as mild (under 3% of body), moderate (3-10%), or severe (over 10%).
Common Symptoms include red raised patches, silvery-white scales, dry cracked bleeding skin, itching, burning, thickened nails, and swollen joints. Common triggers include stress, infections, skin injuries, medications, weather changes, alcohol, and smoking.
