*Psoriasis :*
Psoriasis guttata : Psoriasis commences in small, red, somewhat
elevated,roundish spots, like drops, which are soon covered with
dry,oblong, white scales. This stage is called Psoriasis guttata.

Psoriasis diffusa : When the spots increase in number, they necessarily
coalesce as they grow and form large irregular surfaces, which are
covered with scales of various thickness and adhesiveness. This stage is
called Psoriasis diffusa.

Psoriasis annulata : They sometimes accumulate in round patches. While
on the periphery new spots still appear, those in the centre dry up, and
this give rise to a circular eruption called Psoriasis annulata ( Ring
worm ).

Psoriasis gyrata.: Several circles of psoriasis annulata meet, their
peripheric lines are broken off by already healed up centres, and now
they form various figures, parts of circles,straight lines etc, and is
called psoriasis gyrata.

Psoriasis inveterata. : In some cases the morbid process of skin
leisions continues for a long time, and causes the skin to become
thickened, rigid, and cracked. This takes place especially in the
diffuse and irregular forms; then it is called Psoriasis inveterate.
Psoriasis syphilitic : The circumspect form of psoriasis. This is always
of syphilitic origin.
