Psoriasis is a non-contagious chronic skin condition, the cause is unknown and it is not passed to anyone through touch or exposure.  Psoriasis causes skin cells to build up rapidly on the surface of the skin. The extra skin cells form thick silvery cells and itch, dry, re patches that are sometimes painful.  Research show that psoriasis has both hereditary and environmental causes and is triggered by the immune system.
