Psoriasis Nails Diseases

Psoriasis
Psoriasis of the nails is characterized by raw, scaly skin and is sometimes confused with eczema.  When it attacks the nail plate, it will leave it pitted, dry, and it will often crumble.  The plate may separate from the nail bed and may also appear red, orange or brown, with red spots in the lunula.  Do not attempt salon treatments on a client with Nail Psoriasis. Consult with a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.
