What is palmoplantar pustulosis?
Palmoplantar pustulosis is a benign, chronic, and often relapsing sterile pustular dermatosis affecting the palms and soles. It may occur in patients with psoriasis, however it likely represents a distinct clinical entity. It responds less reliably to biologic treatments effective in psoriasis.
