#TransformeAPsoríase: sintomas e tratamentos da psoríase

According to the World Health Organization, more than 100 million people worldwide have been diagnosed with psoriasis. This is a chronic disease characterized by the appearance of reddish, scaly skin lesions, mainly located on the elbows, knees, and scalp, but which can appear anywhere on the body, including the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, and nails. The causes of psoriasis are still unknown, but the disease is a predisposition in individuals, which can be triggered by factors such as specific medications, stress, and trauma. Although not contagious, the disease directly affects the lives of patients, who not only avoid simple daily activities but also social interaction, fearing exposure and prejudice, leading to depression, low self-esteem, and anxiety attacks.
