Isolated Genital Psoriasis
Journal Title: International Journal of Pediatric Health Care & Advancements (IJPA) - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin disorder with a considerable impact on social functioning and personnel relationship. Isolated genital psoriasis is considered a rare manifestation of psoriasis. The manifestations of genital psoriasis may differ from typical genital dermatoses and may mimic other diseases at an early stage. The psychosocial impact of psoriasis often causes more distress than its physical symptoms, and the perception of stigmatization has a detrimental impact on social functioning and self-image. We report a new case in order to recognize this rare variety of psoriasis.
