Detailed explanation-1: -The cause of psoriasis isn’t fully understood. It’s thought to be an immune system problem where infection-fighting cells attack healthy skin cells by mistake. Researchers believe that both genetics and environmental factors play a role. The condition is not contagious.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cause of Psoriasis This causes keratinocytes to “pile up” on the surface of the skin, leading to itchy, scaly patches known as plaques. Autoimmune disorders are not contagious. They are caused by a malfunctioning immune system rather than an infectious disease you can catch.
Detailed explanation-3: -Psoriasis is not contagious. This means you cannot get psoriasis from contact (e.g., touching skin patches) with someone who has it.
