Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition marked by the rapid turnover of skin cells, leading to red, scaly patches that can appear on various parts of the body.
Though the exact cause of psoriasis remains unclear, it is believed to involve a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental factors.
While there is no cure, treatments aim to manage symptoms and improve quality of life, including alternative approaches like homeopathy that seek to address the condition holistically.
