3. Psoriasis

Does your skin remind you of a patchwork quilt?  Psoriasis may be the culprit. Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease which develops from a hyperactive immune system. The immune system causes skin cells to multiply at an accelerated rate, these cells then move to the surface, creating a thick, discolored patch with a silver coating. This condition is called Plaque Psoriasis, which is the most common. Psoriasis is usually found on the knees, elbows, and scalp, but the rest of the body is not immune to this condition.
