See dermatologist: These two conditions , although presumably of autoimmune nature, are not related. Your psoriasis however appears to be more cosmetic than functional at this time in the absence of joint symptoms. Do realize that both conditions predispose you to cardiovascular disease and thus you need regular monitoring to reduce your risk factors for cv conditions.
