Nail Psoriasis Treatment in Mumbai
Nail psoriasis is a condition that affects the nails of people with psoriasis,
causing changes in nail appearance and structure. Symptoms may include pitting,
discoloration, thickening, and separation of the nail from the nail bed.
Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and improving nail health through various
therapeutic approaches, including topical treatments and systemic medications.
Common Causes of Nail Psoriasis:
- Autoimmune Response: The body's
immune system mistakenly attacks healthy nail cells
- Genetics: Family history of
psoriasis increases the likelihood of developing nail psoriasis
- Environmental Triggers: Stress,
infections, or injuries can exacerbate symptoms
- Systemic Psoriasis: Often
occurs alongside skin or joint psoriasis
- Age: More common in adults,
though it can affect individuals of any age
