A member asked:
Do you have a blood test for psoriasis ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Psoriasis is usually obvious clinically, and few diseases mimic it. When in doubt, it can be biopsied. If you've been told you have psoriasis, but it doesn't seem to be the typical illness, it might be time to get a biopsy or another physician's thoughts.
