Our skin is a dynamic organ that responds to both external and internal signals, including mental stress. Recent research highlights that stress is not just a metaphorical factor but plays a significant role in the development and worsening of chronic skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis. Stress activates hormonal pathways that can disrupt the skin's immune balance, weaken its barrier, and promote inflammation, making flare-ups more frequent and healing more difficult. The relationship between stress and these skin conditions is cyclical, as the discomfort and appearance of skin diseases can also increase stress, creating a self-perpetuating loop. Addressing stress through lifestyle changes and emotional therapies, alongside medical treatments, is increasingly recognized as an important part of managing chronic skin conditions.
