Inflammatory Skin Disease Pathology

Inflammatory skin diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly reacts against the skin, leading to symptoms like redness, swelling, and itching. Common conditions include psoriasis, eczema, and dermatitis. In these diseases, skin cells grow too quickly or the skin barrier is weakened, allowing irritants or allergens to cause further inflammation. This immune response can be triggered by various factors, such as genetics, environmental stressors, or infections. Effective treatment often focuses on reducing inflammation, restoring the skin barrier, and managing symptoms to improve the individual’s quality of life.
