Psoriasis tends to flare-up when the person is exposed to certain trigger factors. These conditions such as:
a lack of sunlight and low indoor humidity in the winter months,
injury to the skin can cause the formation of a psoriasis,
infections caused by bacteria or viruses can cause a psoriasis flare,
stress can trigger a psoriasis flares;
But many in teh field of psoriasis research are still unclear about exactly how this occurs. Studies do show that not only can a sudden, stressful event trigger a rash to worsen; daily hassles of life can also trigger the symptoms of a flare.
Researchers at Psoriasis-Ltd have found that when treating psoriasis, you may not always be able to control the factors that trigger or aggravate your condition, but you can control your approach toward addressing those triggers. A natural treatment to improve psoriasis skin can be found in basic lifestyle changes. The management of psoriasis can be challenging. No one treatment works for everyone, since the areas involved and the degree of scaling and inflammation affects different people in different ways. At best we try to interrupt the pattern of scaling and inflammation, which, in essence, are the symptoms of the disease.
