By Marie Young


Psoriasis is a common skin disorder. The human body produces skin cells regularly. After a period of time, new skin cells replace the old ones. The process normally takes 3 to 4 weeks. However, replacing the old cells with new ones takes 3 to 7 days for a skin with psoriasis disorder. Consequently, the shorter period taken to replace old cells results in abnormal accumulation of skin cells that cause patches related to psoriasis. The condition is mainly caused by the anatomy of the immune system and genetics. There are different remedies that can be used to alleviate the disorder.
