eli5: what is psoriasis and how/why does it occur?
In: 2
It’s an immune disorder, alot of people get flare ups due to stress, cold or infections. Basically your bodies just like let’s make random red patches that are semi itchy with some scales so you get the satisfaction that picking a scab can bring you.
It doesn’t actively hurt (me) but does make people self conscious.

Edited: to say flare ups and to specifify actively hurt.
