Is Redness Of Skin Persistent When Diagnosed With Erythrodermic Psoriasis?
Brief Answer:
Psoriatic erythroderma is constant; not evanscent
Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us
I have gone through your query and I have noted down concern.
In erythrodermic psoriasis redness is not as short lived so as to disappear within a few hours and then reappear again. It is constant and can last for days or sometimes weeks together. Involved skin in erythroderma is thickened/ infiltrated because of inflammation and edema.
Regards
