Psoriasis
Psoriasis is usually called scaly lichen, its peculiarity lies in the fact that a person suffering from an illness is completely harmless to others, since this is not an infectious disease. Psoriasis spreads to the skin, nails and hair.
This disease is intermittent. There are moments of exacerbation, but there are periods when the symptoms are practically not manifested. At the time of relapse, a person feels very tired, drowsy and depressed. Solid oil ointment helps to get rid of symptoms for a long period of time.
This disease affects people with pale skin. There are the following statistics - every twenty-fifth person on our planet suffers from scaly lichen. This is up to about four percent of the inhabitants of developed countries.
This disease is the most studied, it is now officially accepted that psoriasis is an incurable disease. But it is not fully understood, and many questions remain about this. It is now known that psoriasis is not an acquired disease, it is provoked by one's own immune cells.
