Inverse Psoriasis: Occurs in skin folds, such as under the breasts, in the armpits, or in the groin area. Presents as smooth, red patches of inflamed skin. Prone to irritation and sweating due to the skin-on-skin contact.

What causes Psoriasis?

Overactive immune system: Psoriasis can be caused by an immune system malfunction where it mistakenly attacks healthy skin cells.

Genetic factors: Having a family history of psoriasis can increase the likelihood of developing psoriasis.

Environmental triggers: Certain factors like stress, infections, skin injuries, or certain medications can trigger or worsen flare-ups.

Inflammation: The immune system's attack leads to inflammation in the skin, that result in the characteristic red, raised, and scaly plaques.

Rapid skin cell growth: In psoriasis, the skin cells start to multiply faster than normal, leading to an accumulation of skin cells on the surface, forming plaques.
