Wellbeing Checkup: Managing the Burden of Skin Conditions

Psoriasis and other skin conditions have been associated with quality of life and mental health issues among patients. Effectively managing the physical and psychological burden of these conditions requires therapeutic management, but exercise and other self-care activities can also prove important to achieve positive outcomes. On today's Well-Being Checkup, Patrick Burnett, MD, PhD, FAAD, chief medical officer of Arcutis Biotherapeutics, speaks with The American Journal of Managed Care® on behavioral health risk factors for patients with skin diseases and nondrug-related strategies that may prove helpful in managing symptoms.
