3Psoriasis
- Psoriasis is a long-lasting skin disease that
results in patches (called plaques) of thick, red
skin covered with silvery scales. It occurs
because cells in the outer layer of the skin
multiply faster than normal, and pile up on the
skin's surface. A normal skin cell matures in 28
to 30 days and is shed from the skin's surface
unnoticed. But a psoriatic skin cell takes only 3
to 4 days to mature, and moves to the surface
much earlier. The surplus growth of cells piles
up and forms elevated red lesions that are a
common symptom in psoriasis sufferers.
4Diagnosis of Psoriasis
- Guttate psoriasis - Small, drop-like lesions
appear on the trunk, limbs, and scalp. Guttate
psoriasis is most often triggered by bacterial
infections (for example, Streptococcus). - Pustular psoriasis - Blisters of noninfectious
pus appear on the skin. Attacks of Pustular
psoriasis may be triggered by medications,
infections, emotional stress, or exposure to
certain chemicals. Pustular psoriasis may affect
either small or large areas of the body. - Inverse psoriasis - Large, dry, smooth, vividly
red plaques occur in the folds of the skin near
the genitals, under the breasts, or in the
armpits. Inverse psoriasis is related to
increased sensitivity to friction and sweating
and may be painful or itchy. - Erythrodermic psoriasis - Widespread reddening
and scaling of the skin is often accompanied by
itching or pain. Erythrodermic psoriasis may be
precipitated by severe sunburn, use of oral
steroids (such as cortisone), or a drug-related
rash.
5Who gets Psoriasis
- Psoriasis is linked to a genetic case, where a
family association exists in one out of three
cases. It often appears at between the ages of 15
and 35, but it can develop at any age. About 10
percent to 15 percent of those with psoriasis get
it before age 10, and occasionally it appears in
infancy. Psoriasis is not contagious, so one can
"catch" it from another person.
6What are the most irritating locations for
Psoriasis
- Scalp Scalp psoriasis occurs in at least half of
all people with psoriasis. It can range from very
mild with fine scaling to very severe with thick,
crusted plaques.Genitals Genital psoriasis
acts similar to other affected parts of the body.
But because of the sensitivity of the skin, this
type may require special considerations.Hands
and Feet Pustular psoriasis can impair a
person's ability to work. Plaque psoriasis can
dry out the skin and cause cracking and
bleeding.Nails Nail changes occur in about
half of those with psoriasis and 80 percent of
those with psoriatic arthritis. The nails may
have small holes (pitting), a changed shape
(deformation), separation from the skin
(oncholyosis) and discoloration.

Laboratory Examinations
9Conventional and herbal immunosuppressants are
commonly used for the treatment of psoriasis.
Doctors generally treat psoriasis in steps,
based on the severity of the disease, size of the
skin areas involved, type of psoriasis, and the
patient's response to initial treatment. This is
sometimes called the "1-2-3" approach. In step 1,
medication is applied to the skin (topical
treatment). Step 2 employs light treatment
(phototherapy). Step 3 involves the ingestion of
medication by mouth or injection a process that
addresses the whole immune system (called
systemic therapy).
Current Treatment
10The Herose Psoria Capsule is approved as a
Chinese Proprietary Medicine in Singapore,
developed by a group of doctors headed by
military surgeon/dermatologist, Dr. Tang Jinghua,
who has over 30 years of experience in practicing
Chinese medicine. Based on his rich clinical
experience, Dr. Tang believes that what is
commonly known as a variety of cold syndromes
(insufficiency of both the Pi and the Shen)
causes anomalies in the immune system function.
To address this in the case of psoriasis, he
adopts the therapeutic method of warming the yang
and promoting blood circulation to enhance and
balance the immune system. This treatment concept
is diametrically opposed to Western-style
therapies that employ drugs to suppress the
immune system. Immunosuppression provides only
temporary symptomatic relief, does not correct
the root problem, and can be accompanied by many
undesirable side effects over long term use.
