Join the movement and spread awareness for Psoriasis Awareness Month - learn more about this skin condition, support those living with it, and donate to research!
August marks the beginning of Psoriasis Awareness Month, a time to recognize and celebrate those living with psoriasis. Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that affects millions of people around the world and can take many forms, ranging from red and scaly patches to thick plaques covering large areas of the body. Although there is no cure for psoriasis, there are treatments available that can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life. August 1st marks the start of an important month dedicated to raising awareness about this condition, recognizing those affected by it, and finding ways to support them.
Share information on psoriasis with your family and friends. Talk to them about how common psoriasis is and how it can be managed. Use social media to raise awareness and educate others on the condition.
Organize a fundraiser in your community to raise money to support research, treatment, and education efforts related to psoriasis. You can do this online or host an event in person.
Attend a local psoriasis support group meeting or online chatroom and connect with others who are living with psoriasis. This can be a great way to learn more about the condition, share tips, and get emotional support.
Create an online challenge or game that encourages people to learn more about psoriasis, for example, by quizzing people on symptom recognition or facts about the condition. You can even turn it into a competition to see who knows the most.
Volunteer your time at a local hospital or clinic that treats people with psoriasis. You can help out with administrative tasks, patient education, or just provide moral support.
Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that unfortunately doesn't get nearly as much attention as it should. Psoriasis Awareness Month is an opportunity to educate people about the signs and symptoms of psoriasis, as well as potential treatments and lifestyle changes that can help with managing the condition.
Having psoriasis can be isolating for many people. During Psoriasis Awareness Month, we have the chance to come together in solidarity and provide invaluable support to anyone who may be struggling with the physical and emotional effects of living with psoriasis.
Psoriasis Awareness Month also serves as a prompt for medical researchers to work on finding new treatments and cures for the condition. By bringing more attention to psoriasis, we can create a larger pool of resources for further research and development into possible solutions.
