Skin Conditions We Treat
Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a common, typically chronic skin disorder that causes red, scaly areas on the scalp, trunk, and extremities. Sometimes the palms and soles are affected and for some patients, psoriasis can be itchy, even painful.
Psoriasis can run in families and appears to be caused by dysregulation of the immune system. Various things can cause psoriasis to flare, including: infections, stress, smoking, medications, and obesity. There are many treatments available for psoriasis, including topical medications, oral and injectable medications, narrow-band ultraviolet light therapy, and Grenz ray therapy. We offer all of these treatments at Dermatology Associates. If you think you have psoriasis or want to get better control of your psoriasis, please call our office to schedule a consultation: 360-254-5267.
