Advanced, Personalized Care for Long-Term Skin Relief
Struggling with red, itchy, scaly patches or flare-ups that just won’t go away? At Dr. Kumar Skin & Laser Clinic, we offer targeted psoriasis treatment in Jamshedpur to help you manage flare-ups, reduce symptoms, and improve your skin health.
Symptoms of Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that speeds up skin cell growth, leading to inflammation and thick, scaly patches. While it’s not contagious, it can deeply affect your comfort and self-confidence. Early treatment helps reduce both symptoms and flare frequency.
- Red, inflamed skin patches
- Silver-white scales or plaques
- Dry, cracked skin that may bleed
- Itching or burning sensation
- Thickened or discolored nails
- Joint stiffness (psoriatic arthritis)
Types of Psoriasis We Treat
- Plaque Psoriasis – Raised, red patches covered with silvery scales — most common type.
- Scalp Psoriasis – Thick scales and itching near the hairline or full scalp.
- Guttate Psoriasis – Small, drop-like red spots — often seen after infections.
- Inverse Psoriasis – Red, shiny rashes in skin folds like underarms and groin.
- Pustular Psoriasis – White pus-filled bumps, mainly on palms and soles.
- Erythrodermic Psoriasis – Severe redness and widespread peeling — requires urgent care.
Causes, Triggers & Diagnosis
Psoriasis is linked to immune dysfunction and is often triggered by:
- Family history (genetics)
- Stress and anxiety
- Infections (e.g., strep throat)
- Cold weather
- Skin injuries or cuts
- Certain medications
Most cases are diagnosed clinically. We may recommend:
- Skin biopsy (to confirm the type)
- Blood tests (if arthritis symptoms are present)
