Kids aren't likely to get these types of psoriasis:
Pustular psoriasis: This shows up as blisters on red or swollen skin on the hands and feet. If a child does get it, it's typically either milder than an adult would have or a kind called annular pustular psoriasis that causes a red ring around the blisters.
Inverse psoriasis: This happens in the folds of the body -- under the knee, in the armpit, or around the groin. It looks very red, smooth, and shiny.
Erythrodermic psoriasis: This is a severe form that can be life threatening. It causes redness over most of the body. It's very itchy and painful and can make skin come off in sheets.
