Psoriasis: Children and Young People
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many people aged between 16 and 25 are medically treated for psoriasis in England, broken down by (a) age and (b) gender.
- Answer
-
A table showing a count of Finished Admission Episodes (FAEs) for patients aged 16 to 25 years old with a recorded primary diagnosis of psoriasis, broken down by patient age and gender, for the period 2019/20 to 2023/24, and in English National Health Service hospitals, is attached.
Please be aware that the majority of psoriasis is treated by a general practitioner or elsewhere in the community, with only a small minority of cases, typically the most serious, requiring hospital admission. The data presented will, therefore, only represent a small proportion of the total number of cases that were treated.
