What is 

Hand and foot psoriasis

?

Hand and foot psoriasis, also known as palmoplantar psoriasis, is a chronic autoimmune condition that affects the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. It causes thickened, red, scaly patches that can be painful and may crack or bleed. This type of psoriasis can significantly impact daily activities, making it difficult to walk, grip objects, or perform routine tasks.

What causes Hand and foot psoriasis?

Hand and foot psoriasis is an autoimmune condition, meaning the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy skin cells, leading to rapid skin cell turnover and inflammation. Triggers for flare-ups include:

  • Stress and anxiety
  • Infections or illnesses
  • Skin injuries, including cuts, burns, or excessive friction
  • Exposure to irritants, such as harsh chemicals or detergents
  • Cold, dry weather conditions
  • Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption

How is Hand and foot psoriasis treated?

Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, relieving symptoms, and preventing flare-ups. Common treatment options include:

  • Topical corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and redness
  • Vitamin D analogs to slow down excessive skin cell growth
  • Moisturizers to prevent dryness and cracking
  • Non-steroidal creams such as calcineurin inhibitors for sensitive areas
  • Phototherapy (light therapy) for severe or persistent cases
  • Systemic treatments, including oral medications or biologics, for severe cases that do not respond to topical treatments

Can Hand and foot psoriasis be treated online?

Yes! Online dermatology consultations allow you to connect with a healthcare provider from the comfort of your home. A licensed professional can assess your symptoms, provide a diagnosis, and develop a personalized treatment plan to help you manage hand and foot psoriasis effectively.
