It looks like an image didn't come through — only the question was received! Without being able to see the skin, it's not possible to say whether it looks like pustular psoriasis or not.
That said, here's what pustular psoriasis typically looks like, which might help: Pustular psoriasis appears as painful, red or discolored skin with white or yellowish pus-filled bumps called pustules. The pustules are not caused by infection — they're sterile but still very inflamed.
Depending on the type, it can show up in different areas:
- Palms of the hands and soles of the feet (palmoplantar pustulosis)
- Fingers, toes, and nails (acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau)
- Large areas all over the body (generalized pustular psoriasis)
If there's fever, fatigue, or joint pain alongside the skin symptoms, that's a sign to seek medical attention quickly, as some forms can be serious.
The best step is to visit a dermatologist who can properly evaluate the skin and give an accurate diagnosis. A photo or in-person visit will help them determine exactly what type of psoriasis — or skin reaction — may be present.
