What is Flexural Psoriasis?
Flexural psoriasis gets its name by being in the skin folds that flex with resulting irritation due to more movement. The breasts, armpits or any skin fold area is likely to have the problem. The more fold area is likely to have more flexural psoriasis due to middle age patients being over weight with larger creases or folds.
Flexural psoriasis is unique in that there is no scaling rather just bright red or pink patches that may be itchy. Perspiration or contact friction from clothing may cause increased irritation, which can be painful at times. Should the patch of affected skin can crack and bleed causing an increased risk of infection.
Cause of Flexural Psoriasis
Flexural psoriasis is thought to occur as a result of a yeast over growth, as well as high sensitivity to friction and perspiration. When flexural psoriasis occurs in the groin area, it can be very uncomfortable and embarrassing. Too much scratching can worsen it and cause extreme inflammation. Scratching, friction and sweating, harsh soaps and skin care products, and stress of all sorts can result in a worsening of the symptoms of flexural psoriasis. The affected areas are susceptible to over growth of bacteria and fungal infections.
