World Psoriasis Day 2018 October 29, 2018
October 29, 2018
Living with an itchy and flaky skin can be hard as hell, but when this condition aggravates due to your over-active immune response, leads to an incurable skin disease called Psoriasis. It is mainly characterised by building up of skin cells, leading to flaking, inflammation, and thick, white, silvery, or red patches of skin.
Suffering from psoriasis isn’t really a walk in the park, we at Cosmosure Skin Clinic, completely understand the way you feel about that ugly rash on your skin, and how it impacts your social life and lifestyle as a whole. That feeling of being overly self-conscious in public, can shake your self-confidence and impact your self-esteem.
To recognise and acknowledge the suffering and pain, the patients with Psoriasis go through, IFPA, the International Federation of Psoriasis Association, has come up with the World Psoriasis Day, to promote Awareness about Psoriasis. It is observed on 29 Oct every year.
We, at Cosmosure, understand, how it’s like for you to deal with this condition, day in and day out, we wish to create a safe and empathetic circle for the psoriasis patients where their problems will not only be dealt medically, but also, emotionally, by providing a platform where you can share their stories on how they deal with Psoriasis and in turn strengthen other fellow patients who have been going through the same thing.
Needless to say, we have the right medical team of Dedicated Doctors and certified technicians, who are here to help you go through this incredibly difficult journey of dealing with Psoriasis with new advanced treatments and a lot of compassion and care.
Busting Myths
When people see someone with a skin rash, as in Psoriasis, the common reaction would be, “if you touch that person, you might get it too.” Well, it’s time, these ridiculous myths are busted! Psoriasis is a non-contagious skin disease. It doesn’t spread by touch, sharing food, water or maybe just hanging out with the person. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease, where the person’s immunity acts up against the body. Your immunity is designed to attack the germ cells that enter your body, but in this case, it starts attacking the healthy cells instead.
How Psoriasis Taken By The Society!
Society has always looked down upon Psoriasis. It’s time we educate people that it’s not the person’s fault that they suffer from this skin disease. It can happen to anyone. We have to learn to be kind and empathetic towards people suffering from this incurable skin condition. Though it can’t be cured, there are sure ways, it can be kept under control, by the right Skin Care Treatment, which will definitely help to relieve a lot of suffering.
Psoriasis & Mental Health
Yes, Psoriasis affects the mental health of the patient as well. A chemical called as ‘Cytokine’ is released by the immune cells, which makes the skin cells grow rapidly to form the scaly skin seen in Psoriasis. Cytokine is also responsible for affecting the brain chemicals like serotonin, which affects the mood, sometimes leading to depression or suicidal thoughts.
Living with Psoriasis
If you are suffering from Psoriasis, make sure to get out there with your medical and non-medical concerns Tell people how it feels to be living with Psoriasis; how bravely you have decided to battle with Psoriasis in your everyday life, how you find the strength to wake up each day, and accept Psoriasis as a part of your life. Have the courage to talk about it with your friends, family and co-workers. Help another victim to live a better social life.
