Psoriasis, Treatment, Chronic skin diseaseAbstract
Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Its etiology is not yet fully understood, but it is thought to be related to a combination of genetic, immunological and environmental factors. In this literature review article, several relevant scientific studies and publications will be analyzed to provide an overview of psoriasis treatment. Aspects such as epidemiology, the significance of the disease, the theoretical framework that includes definition, diagnosis, treatment and complications will be addressed, and conclusions based on the available evidence will be presented.
