Kim Kardashian has been diagnosed with psoriasis, the auto-immune skin
disease. Medical research has not yet found the cause of psoriasis but the
common belief is that it is genetic! Stress can trigger the disease!
Back in April on her reality show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians,
Kim was shocked to discover large red sores all over her body!
To say she was shocked would be an understatement!
Kim said:
"People don't understand the pressure on me to look perfect.
When I gain a pound it's in the headlines.
Imagine what the tabloids would do to me if they saw all
these spots!"
(Keeping Up With The Kardashians-April 11'-Kim)
Kim's mum, Kris, told her daughter that she got psoriasis when she
turned 30, the same age as Kim!! Kim was so self conscious about
her skin that she almost cancelled photo shoot! Fortunately with
a little help from her make-up artist, Kim's skin looked great -
the sores were not visible! It's a skin condition that affects
many people around the world, Kim has learnt to deal with it!
As her mum Kris says nobody's perfect, everyone has their
problem areas! Although, Psoriasis is incurable, it can be
treated! Kim's dermatologist has told her to cut back on
her stressful work schedule, stress can worsen her
skin condition!
Somehow, I think Kim will continue to
work hard regardless! Perhaps a vacation
would do her a world of good!
