Kim Kardashian has Psoriasis!

Reality star Kim Kardashian was diagnosed with the dreaded skin disease - Psoriasis!

Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated disease that appears on the skin. It occurs when the immune system sends out faulty signals that speed up the growth cycle of skin cells. The disease manifest itself as thick silvery scales and itchy dry red patches on the skin.

On Sunday night’s episode of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” Kim was diagnosed by Dr. Harold Lancer to have psoriasis after finding red, flaky patches of skin on her legs.

The reality star took a break from photo shoots and celebrity engagements immediately after the diagnosis.

“People don’t understand the pressure on me to look perfect,” Karashian said on the show. “When I gain a pound, it’s in the headlines. Imagine what the tabloids would do to me if they saw all these spots?”

Since stress is a trigger for psoriasis, Lancer suggested that she “lead an easier, slower paced life.”

But according to Kim, that’s not possible.
