A member asked:
Can other issues arise from not having psoriasis treated? ( psoriasis is on my knee only)
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Skin on knee?: If it involved only the skin, it is mostly a cosmetic issue. If it involves the knee itself, then you will need to get treated, .

No: Just because you have psoriasis you are at higher risk for arthritis rather the skin was treated or not.
