Would this be psoriasis?
I will occasionally get little, red patches with white scales on my body. They are usually quite small, usually no larger than a dime or maybe a nickel sometimes. It looks just like the pictures I see of psoriasis, except I never really get more than one small patch at a time. All the pictures I see on the internet show the psoriasis covering very large areas or having multiple patches covering large areas.
So, I guess I am just wonder what this is.
BTW, the patches usually occur in areas that are usually covered by clothing, but recently I got a very small one just above my eyelid, which was very strange.

YES,it definitly sound like psoriasis, i have psoriasis, ive had it since i was 17 (21 now) and its only gotten worse as ive gotten old, its painfiul, but your stuck with it for life. Tanning helps it go away as well as seeing a derm. and getting medication for it, definitly take care of it now as its in the early stage. and when your stressed out it flares up and gets worse and itchy, it sucks so bad :( I knew this guy who had spots of it all over his face, he looked like a cheetah, lets be blessed its not that bad for us. :) take care of it,
