Psoriasis doesn’t just pop up on our hands, arms or scalp. The truth is that the itchy autoimmune skin condition can present itself pretty much anywhere you have skin and sometimes in the strangest areas. And it’s those tucked away, sensitive, or just plain tough-to-reach spots that are often the most difficult to treat.
