Psoriasis is a systemic T-cell-mediated autoimmune disorder characterized by accelerated epidermal keratinocyte proliferation, resulting in thick, erythematous plaques covered by silvery-white scales on the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. In Siliguri, specialist dermatologists provide targeted medical management to induce and sustain clinical remission.

Mild-to-moderate plaques respond to topical corticosteroids paired with calcipotriol (vitamin D3 analog) and salicylic acid keratolytics. Moderate-to-severe disease is managed with Narrowband UVB phototherapy (311nm), oral immunosuppressants (methotrexate, cyclosporine), or targeted biologic injections (IL-17, IL-23, TNF inhibitors).

Dermatologists also screen for psoriatic arthritis in patients presenting with joint stiffness. Doctor consultations start at a few hundred rupees upward.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a dermatologist distinguish between eczema and psoriasis in Siliguri?

Eczema presents with intense itching, ill-defined weeping patches in skin folds (flexural surfaces), while psoriasis presents with sharply demarcated silvery-scaled plaques on extensor surfaces.

What are biologic therapies and how effective are they for psoriasis?

Biologics are precision engineered antibody injections that block specific inflammatory proteins (IL-17, IL-23), delivering 90% to 100% skin clearance (PASI 90/100) with high safety.

Can psoriasis affect the joints and nails?

Yes. Psoriasis can cause nail pitting, discoloration, and subungual thickening, as well as psoriatic arthritis causing morning stiffness and swollen digits.
