Could this be psoriasis


Could this be psoriasis?
For several years I have on and off rashes on my fingers. And after I scratch them, little white dots/bumps (that resemble sand or sugar) appear on my skin. And my fingers are really dry. Could this be psoriasis? I read online that a sign of diabetes mellitus is finger pebbles where the skin would have white pebbles often on the finger. The picture looks like what I have. I'm worried the white bumps could be a sign of diabetes.

The only way to find out if you have diabetes is to have a simple blood test. You can live with Diabetes with a controlled diet and if anything you will learn how to eat healthy.

Dry and flaky skin can be a sign of psoriasis, but it can be from other conditions as well. Personally, I think you best go and have it checked with your doctor. Psoriasis or diabetes, both need immediate attention if your want them to be treated correctly. Good luck!
