Psoriasis is one of the most common skin diseases seen in dermatological practice in Ireland. It is estimated that psoriasis affects about 100,000 people in Ireland. Psoriasis is a skin disorder where there is an increase in the rate at which skin cells are produced and shed from the skin. Usually skin cells take one month to be replaced but in psoriasis it is faster. This results in pink thickened patches with silvery white scales.
