Psoriasis is a complex skin disease that affects people physically and emotionally.
It is multi-faceted in its severity and in its impact on one's feelings. Knowledge is key to living with psoriasis. It is essential that parents or guardians share this information with a child who has psoriasis and with other family members, so they understand this disease as well.
