Psoriasis is not contagious. Psoriasis is a common, chronic, non-contagious erythematous and scaly skin disease characterized by excessive proliferation and inflammation of epidermal cells. It is commonly known as psoriasis. The cause is unknown and may be related to genetics, infection, immune abnormalities, endocrine disorders, metabolic disorders, neuropsychiatric factors, trauma, certain physical and chemical factors, natural ecological environment and other factors. It is divided into four types: vulgaris, articular type, erythrodermic type, and pustular type.
