8. Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a common, chronic skin condition with no cure. It appears in cycles and can flare for weeks or months at a time before going away for some time or even going into remission. Rashes appear as itchy red, scaly patches commonly on the knees, elbows, scalp, or trunk. Some forms of psoriasis develop thick, silvery scales, while others can crack or bleed.
