5. Does psoriasis pose a danger to my overall health?
   
   
6. Can I transmit psoriasis to other people?
   
   
7. Will my lesions leave scars?
   
   
8. What steps can I take to prevent infection?
   
   
9. How will I know if my skin becomes infected?
   
   
10. How likely is it that my children will develop psoriasis?
