Courtesy of www.medstores.net Psoriasis is best described as a chronic, autoimmune disease that appears on the skin. It occurs when the immune system sends out faulty signals that speed up the growth cycle of skin cells. Psoriasis is not contagious. It commonly causes red, scaly patches to appear on the skin, although some patients have no dermatological symptoms. The scaly patches commonly caused by psoriasis, called psoriatic plaques, are areas of inflammation and excessive skin production. Skin rapidly accumulates at these sites which gives it a silvery-white appearance. Plaques frequently occur on the skin of the elbows and knees, but can affect any area including the scalp, palms of hands and soles of feet, and genitals. In contrast to eczema, psoriasis is more likely to be found on the outer side of the joint. The disorder is a chronic recurring condition that varies in severity from minor localized patches to complete body coverage. Fingernails and toenails are frequently affected (psoriatic nail dystrophy) and can be seen as an isolated symptom. Psoriasis can also cause inflammation of the joints, which is known as psoriatic arthritis. Ten to fifteen percent of people with psoriasis have psoriatic arthritis.

Various environmental factors have been suggested as aggravating

Answer by Starlight
There are many medications available today that can slow the progression of joint damage and disability. Visit the website for the Arthritis Foundation — there is a section of great info for JRA. Also, visit the RA Connect forum and join in some of the discussions. Your parents will also find the site very informative and helpful (if you still live at home). There are many JRA patients who take part in the discussions. Also, go to the website for the Department of Health and Human Services and look up JRA.
