Psoriasis is a common chronic recurrent inflammatory skin disease characterized by red papules or plaques covered with multiple layers of silvery-white scales. It often occurs on the extensor side of the limbs, scalp and back. Severe skin lesions can spread throughout the body and may cause high fever, pustules, erythroderma-like changes and lesions in large and small joints throughout the body. This disease is similar to "white sore", "wind" and "snake lice" recorded in traditional Chinese medical literature. like. "Yi Zong Jin Jian" records: "This disease is commonly known as snake lice, which grows on the skin, looks like rashes and scabies, is white and itchy, and white skin will be scratched." Another example. The Complete Book of Surgery and Its Treatments states that "white rashes (also known as wind) appear on the skin due to dryness and itching, like rashes or scabies, and are white in color. When scratched, dandruff will appear, and the limbs will gradually become dry, cracked, and bleeding and painful." The old doctor Zhao Bingnan believed that the disease is like a dagger stabbing into your body, indicating that the disease is stubborn.

1. Erythrodermic psoriasis is a rare and special inflammatory type of psoriasis. It often affects more than 75% of the body surface and can affect all parts of the body, including the face, hands, feet, nails, trunk and limbs. It can be a sudden onset or a gradual development of chronic psoriasis. Unstable psoriasis vulgaris with obvious inflammation, expanding skin lesions and ineffective control, or psoriasis vulgaris with sudden cessation of topical potent glucocorticoids, systemic glucocorticoids or MTX, concomitant other systemic diseases, infections or emotional depression, as well as generalized pustular psoriasis are all prone to develop into erythrodermic psoriasis. The clinical features are diffuse large areas of erythema, edema, and desquamation on the skin of the whole body, with erythema being the most obvious, and small areas of normal skin with clear boundaries often exist (Figure 7). When it occurs on the face, the eyelids may be everted. It is often accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever, chills, fatigue, and depression. Patients may have leukocytosis and left shift, electrolyte imbalance, hypoproteinemia, dehydration, and occasionally abnormal liver function.

2. Pustular psoriasis

(1) Acute generalized pustular psoriasis (Zumbusch type): Patients may have a history of psoriasis vulgaris for several years and then develop pustular psoriasis. Both men and women can be affected. Local irritation, pregnancy, taking birth control pills, infection and discontinuation of glucocorticoids are all precipitating factors. The clinical features are sudden onset of high fever, malaise and joint swelling lasting for several days, followed by systemic skin erythema, edema, and generalized dense yellow-white, shallow, sterile pinhead to millet-sized pustules. Pustules are usually located on skin that is obviously red. They start out as small flakes and then merge into pus lakes. The erythema surrounding the pustules often expands and merges, which can lead to erythroderma-like changes (Figures 8-10). In addition to the formation of nail matrix pustules and complete loss of the nail, fingertip atrophy may occur in patients with longer course of disease. Other systemic manifestations include weight loss, leukocytosis, hypocalcemia, and increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Patients may develop severe systemic lesions, congestive heart failure, and secondary infections. Short-term fever and pustule formation occur periodically and are generally resistant to treatment. They may last for months or longer, but the lesions may regress spontaneously.

(2) Annular pustular psoriasis: Lesions appear during a psoriasis attack or during the course of generalized pustular psoriasis and tend to expand and form an enlarged ring. The main feature is the presence of pustules on annular erythema.

(3) Localized pustular psoriasis: This type of psoriasis lacks systemic symptoms and includes two types: palmoplantar pustular psoriasis and continuous acrodermatitis. Palmoplantar pustular psoriasis is more common in female patients, and the age of onset is usually 40 to 60 years old. Symmetrical erythematous and scaly plaques occur on the palms and soles, accompanied by recurrent persistent sterile pustules. The pustules appear in batches and turn into brown desquamative macules within 1 to 2 weeks. The course of this disease is chronic with repeated attacks.
