Psoriasis is a chronic, non-contagious autoimmune skin disease characterized by rapid skin cell turnover, resulting in thick, itchy, and scaly patches known as plaques.
Psoriasis is a chronic, non-contagious autoimmune condition where an overactive immune system causes skin cells to grow rapidly, resulting in thick, itchy, or painful scaly patches (plaques). Common areas include the elbows, knees, scalp, and back, which may appear as red patches with silver scales (or darker, violet/gray scales on deeper skin tones).
Homeopathy approaches psoriasis as an external manifestation of internal imbalances, focusing on individualized treatment to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. The goal is to address the root causes and improve overall well-being, rather than just suppressing symptoms.
