The 28 pages that link to Psoriasis, each with the reason it gives.

• Contact dermatitisCompared with: Its typical plaques can be distinguished from eczematous contact dermatitis.

• EpidermisRelated: Accelerated epidermal growth and altered maturation produce its characteristic plaques.

• Atopic dermatitisCompared with: Its plaque morphology and immune pathways differ from atopic dermatitis.

• Skin biopsyRelated: Histology can support diagnosis when its appearance overlaps with other rashes.

• MethotrexateRelated: Methotrexate can suppress the immune activity driving extensive or severe disease.

• Salicylic acidRelated: Salicylic acid is used as a scale-softening treatment, often alongside other therapies.

• KeratinocyteRelated: Accelerated keratinocyte growth and altered maturation contribute to plaque formation.

• Topical corticosteroidRelated: Topical corticosteroids can reduce inflammation in localized plaque psoriasis.

• DermatologyBroader topic: Its characteristic plaques and systemic associations illustrate chronic inflammatory care.

• EczemaCompared with: Its plaques can resemble eczema, but the typical scale and plaque pattern differ.

• KeratinizationRelated: Accelerated epidermal turnover disrupts normal keratinization in psoriatic plaques.

• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentationRelated: Inflamed plaques can leave discoloration after they resolve.

• PhototherapyRelated: Ultraviolet phototherapy can reduce skin inflammation and slow excessive skin-cell growth.

• DermatophyteCompared with: Its plaques can resemble tinea corporis but are not caused by fungi.

• DermatophytosisCompared with: Its plaques can mimic fungal rashes, but the underlying cause is different.

• Skin lesionCompared with: Its characteristic plaques show how a disease pattern can involve multiple lesions.

• Tinea corporisCompared with: Plaque psoriasis can be mistaken for ringworm when lesions are scaly and localized.

• Ultraviolet-BRelated: Controlled ultraviolet-B exposure can slow excessive skin-cell growth and reduce psoriasis symptoms.

• DermatitisCompared with: Its characteristic plaques can resemble chronic dermatitis but usually have a different pattern.

• Tinea pedisCompared with: Foot psoriasis may resemble moccasin-pattern tinea pedis, but has a different cause.

• BetamethasoneRelated: Topical betamethasone can reduce inflammation and scaling in localized psoriasis.

• IchthyosisCompared with: Inflammatory plaques distinguish psoriasis from the usually generalized scaling of ichthyosis.

• Skin infectionCompared with: Psoriasis creates persistent plaques that can be mistaken for some infections.

• Integumentary systemBroader topic: Rapid epidermal turnover makes this disease a distinctive disorder of skin renewal.

• Pine tarRelated: Pine-tar preparations have been used as topical treatments for psoriasis.

• Athlete's footCompared with: Foot psoriasis can resemble chronic athlete's foot.

• Skin and Connective Tissue DiseasesRelated: Its characteristic plaques differ from many eczematous and infectious eruptions.

• Skin conditionBroader topic: Its visible plaques show how altered cell growth can change skin appearance.
