Can psoriasis worsen

First: psoriasis, commonly known as psoriasis, is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with a long course and a tendency to relapse. Some cases are almost never cured. The disease mainly occurs in young adults, which has a great impact on the physical health and mental status of patients. The main clinical manifestations are erythema and scales, which can be found all over the body. Scalp and limb extension are common, and most of them are aggravated in winter.

Second, the etiology of the disease has been studied, but it is still not very clear. At present, it is considered that the occurrence of this disease is not a single cause, it may involve many aspects. A considerable number of patients have a family history of disease, and some families have obvious genetic tendency. Generally speaking, about 30% of them have family history. The incidence rate varies widely among different races.

Third, many scholars have confirmed that streptococcal infection is related to the pathogenesis and course of psoriasis from humoral immunity (anti streptococcal group), cellular immunity (peripheral blood and skin lesions T cells), bacterial culture and treatment. In patients with psoriasis, Staphylococcus aureus infection can aggravate skin lesions, which is related to the superantigen of Staphylococcus aureus exotoxin.
