Additionally, the Mayo Clinic explains that psoriasis isn’t limited to your skin. It can also affect your nails, making them thicker, prickly, discolored, or even causing them to separate from the nail bed (a condition called onycholysis). Nail changes are often an early indicator of psoriatic arthritis, a related condition that affects the joints.
Psoriasis can present in many different forms, but understanding its signs can help you take control of the situation. If you notice any of the signs we’ve mentioned, see a dermatologist to get the care and treatment you deserve to improve your overall health.
