Psoriasis (Part 1) - Head, Elbows, Knees and Toes

In the first episode of this two-part topic, your hosts Dr George Moncrieff and Dr Roger Henderson give you a complete guide to psoriasis, answering:  What is psoriasis? Who gets psoriasis? Why does psoriasis occur in different groups of people? How is psoriasis diagnosed? What is the impact of psoriasis on someone’s mental wellbeing? What it means when doctors say ‘psoriasis is an inflammatory condition.’ What triggers psoriasis flare-ups?   Thank you to our kind sponsor AproDerm, who provide a range of emollients designed for the management of dry skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis and ichthyosis.  Everyone’s skin is unique and what works for one person, may not work for another. That’s why AproDerm has developed the AproDerm Emollient Starter Pack.
