Early symptoms of psoriasis in children

Early symptoms of psoriasis in children include the appearance of silvery-white scales on the skin, commonly found on the scalp, face, chest, and limbs. These scales continuously shed, causing the affected skin to become dry, rough, and sometimes itchy or painful. The exact cause of childhood psoriasis is not yet fully understood, but factors such as genetics, immune system abnormalities, and environmental influences may contribute to its development. Parents should pay attention to their children's daily habits, maintain good hygiene practices, and avoid excessive cleansing or the use of irritating cosmetics.
