reason
- External factors include mechanical and chemical damage to the skin and dermatological diseases.
- Doctors include internal triggers: infections (strep and human immunodeficiency virus), medications (corticosteroids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), neurological stress.
onset
Classification
- Ordinary (vulgar). The most common form of lichen planus, without complications. This group includes plaque psoriasis and nummular psoriasis.
- Generalized pustular psoriasis- A severe form of pathology complicated by secondary infections. It affects multiple areas simultaneously. Includes Zumbusch syndrome and impetigo herpetiformis.
- Persistent acrodermatitis (Crocker's dermatitis, Seton's dermatitis)—Pustule contents are sterile and secondary infection is not present. The main areas affected are the fingers and nails.
- Impetigo of the palms and soles of the hands (pustular bacteria)- Develops on feet and palms. It appears as pustules with sterile contents that gradually increase in size.
- teardrop shape- Papules are distributed individually and do not merge into plaques. The most commonly affected areas are the calves, thighs, back, forearms, chest, and neck.
- Arthropathy-The clinical course is similar to that of rheumatoid arthritis.
- Other psoriasis (reverse)- Collections are concentrated in the armpits, groin and other natural folds. This type includes reflexor psoriasis.
- unspecified psoriasis- Combines multiple pathological types and has a wide range of clinical manifestations.
- summer- Exacerbation of the condition due to skin exposure to sunlight;
- winter- Occurs due to the effects of extreme cold on the skin.
- localized psoriasis- Accounts for less than 20% of body skin;
- Common- more than 20%;
- Generalized-The entire skin is affected.
symptom
- Advanced stage. It is characterized by papules, itching, peeling, peeling, and deformation of nails.
- fixed stage. No new papules appear, the size of the old rash does not increase, and the peeling is moderate.
- regression stage. The plaques heal and form white, depigmented spots in their place that no longer cause discomfort.
complication
diagnosis
- General clinical analysis of blood and urine;
- blood biochemistry;
- C-reactive protein blood test and rheumatology test;
- Coagulogram - Assessment of coagulation;
- Blood test for human leukocyte antigen.
- Biopsy (removal of a piece of skin and further histological examination);
- Laboratory tests - used to differentiate between psoriasis and papular syphilis.
