A member asked:
Is it true that on skin biopsy microscopic examination eczema, psoriasis and other inflammatory skin conditions can be difficult to tell apart sometimes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A pathologist would be best to answer your question. Psoriasis & exzema share some similarities but a dermatologist and most physicians can tell them apart by inspection of the skin eruptions in the majority of cases they see.
