Most likely you have questions about psoriasis but, before we get to that, here are some interesting facts about your skin.

Did you know . . .

  • Your skin is the largest organ in your body.
  • Your dog can recognize you, even in the dark, because of the smell of your skin. Each person's skin has its own unique odor.
  • Your skin is your "air conditioner." When it's hot out, you sweat; the sweat evaporates and cools your skin.
