Silver Scales On The Skin

By DR. THEODORE R. VAN DELLEN

Inverse psoriasis affects areas where apocrine (sweat) glands are plentiful, such as in the armpits and _ groins, along the hairline, around the umbilicus, and over the breast- bone. The seborrheic type. favors the scalp, behind the.| ears, and the central part of the face

Other varieties are named after the shape of. the- eruption. When it resembles a teardrop, it is called gutta-drop where- as exfoliative refers to the dry scaly outbreak that resembles eczema. Pustular lesions con- | tain pus and usually are lo- cated on the palms and soles.

Involvement of the nails leads to yellow, spotty discolor ations studded with tiny ice pick"’ pits and ridging. Debris collects under the nails and

The cause of psoriasis is not known except that it may be hereditary The best method of treatment depends upon the lo- cation Scaly scalp, for exam- ple, presents an obvious prob- lem in women; some rub in | hot mineral oil and wash it | out with a tar shampoo. A liquid containing phenol, salt, and paraffin, or one of the corticosteroid preparations, can be applied and covered with a Dathing cap or a plastic film like Saran wrap a

Many remedies are available for scaly areas on the remain- der of the body. The topical | application of a cortieosteroid or a tar ointment, followed by exposure to ultraviolet, is popular. The injection of corti- sone into isolated plaques has been recommended.
