Flexural psoriasis, also known as inverse psoriasis, occurs in areas between skin-folds, and appears as shiny, red plaques. The plaques don’t have scales because of the moist nature of the areas in which they occur.
Inverse psoriasis commonly occurs in the genital region, armpits, between the buttocks, and below the breasts.
