Is Psoriasis Contagious?

Is Psoriasis Contagious?

No. Psoriasis is not contagious.  You can't catch psoriasis from another person or give it to someone by touching them, and you can't spread it to other parts of your body.

Psoriasis seems to be an inherited disorder, probably related to an inflammatory response in which the immune system accidentally targets the body's own cells. Evidence of the condition is most commonly seen on the trunk, elbows, knees, scalp, nails, trunk, or less commonly, skin folds, but it may affect any or all parts of the skin.

Normally, it takes about a month for new skin cells to move up from the lower layers to the surface. In psoriasis, this process takes only a few days, resulting in a build-up of dead skin cells and formation of thick scales.

Psoriasis may be aggravated by injury or irritation (such as cuts, burns, rashes, insect bites). It may be severe in immunosuppressed people (like those with AIDS or undergoing chemotherapy for cancer), or those who have other autoimmune disorders (such as rheumatoid arthritis). Up to 30% of people with psoriasis may also have arthritis, a condition known as psoriatic arthritis.
