What are the causes of localized psoriasis

summary

Purulent psoriasis is less common than erythrodermic psoriasis, which is more serious and difficult to treat. Today, let me talk about the etiology of localized psoriasis.

What are the causes of localized psoriasis

Etiology 1: as for the cause of localized pustular psoriasis, it is still unclear, the pathogenesis is more complex, and there are many inducing factors, but it is generally related to drug stimulation.

Etiology 2: such as long-term use of topical glucocorticoids, salicylic acid drugs, sunlight, etc. It was also observed that the disease occurred after upper respiratory tract streptococcal infection, so it may be related to infection. But it is not a direct infection of the skin, but an extraordinary reaction of the body.

Etiology 3: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the basic cause of the disease is the deficiency of liver yin. The course of pustular psoriasis is long, and there is a lack of effective single dose drugs. Although the combination of drugs can control the disease, the side effects of some western drugs can not be underestimated. It is easy to relapse after withdrawal, especially palmoplantar pustular psoriasis.

matters needing attention

Therefore, TCM experts remind patients that for the treatment of pustular psoriasis, we should comprehensively analyze the disease condition, remove the possible inducing factors, avoid simply pursuing the short-term curative effect and ignoring the side effects and long-term curative effect of Western medicine, and pay attention to the complementarity of local and systematic treatment.
