Understanding Anus Psoriasis: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment

Anus psoriasis is a form of inverse psoriasis that affects the sensitive skin around the anus. While it’s a condition that’s not often openly discussed, it is more common than many people realize and can have a significant impact on one’s quality of life. Anus psoriasis occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy skin cells, causing them to multiply too quickly and lead to inflammation. Unlike typical psoriasis, which presents with scaly plaques, anus psoriasis usually appears as smooth, red, shiny patches without the silvery scales.
