Palmoplantar Pustulosis
This skin disease is common in people who smoke and sometimes cause by genetics. Even if they quit smoking they are still prone to this disorder. It is also called pustular psoriasis since most people who have PPP also suffers from psoriasis. Unfortunately, the Palmoplantar pustulosis is very hard to treat even with the advancement of medical research.
The PPP patient’s skin develops a tiny fluid like blisters filled with a small amount of puss. It can sometimes be brownish and scaly and comes in crops in your sole or palms. Sometimes it can develop fissures (painful cracks). The colour becomes reddish if the scales become prominent.
There is no treatment for this disorder. However, it can be intervene through applying super-potent topical creams. The severity of the disorder varies with different person and could last for years. Usually treatment is by trial and error because what works for one person might not work in the other person.
