Psoriasis is often seen as just a “cosmetic” problem, although there is a lot more going on beneath the surface of the skin. What’s causing the constant discomfort, and the potential inflammation in other parts of the body? Consultant dermatologist Dr Bong Jan Ling and Marsitah Mansor, who lives with psoriasis, help us to demystify and destigmatise this autoimmune skin condition. This show is part of Health in a Pod, a health education campaign brought to you by Johnson & Johnson Malaysia.
