Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

I can explain that psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with a genetic basis. It can be triggered by various factors, including stress, infections, and certain medications. Managing these triggers is important for controlling the condition and reducing flare-ups. It is recommended to consult with a dermatologist for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

 

Thanks
