Psoriasis is a skin disorder affecting 2% to 3% of the population. Symptoms can range from mild to severe with debilitating flareups that cause itchiness and discomfort.
Dr. Dawn Davis, a dermatologist at Mayo Clinic, says psoriasis is a multisystem inflammatory disorder primarily affecting the skin. She says psoriasis is inherited, and more people might have genes that make them more likely to develop the condition. It can affect any part of the body, including the scalp.
