    Guttate psoriasis ni hali ya kawaida inayoathiri 0. 5-2% ya watoto. Kwa kawaida hujidhihirisha kwa ghafla na mabaka mengi madogo, yaliyotawanyika, yenye machozi, yenye magamba, mekundu na yanayowasha hasa kwenye shina na miguu na mikono. Wakati mwingine, inahusishwa na maambukizi ya hivi karibuni ya strep. Ingawa inaweza kujisafisha yenyewe ndani ya miezi 3-4 bila kovu, inaweza pia kurudi na kuwasha au kuendelea na kugeuka kuwa psoriasis ya plaque sugu katika 40-50% ya kesi. Kwa sababu inaweza kwenda yenyewe, matibabu inaweza kuwa sio lazima kila wakati isipokuwa kwa kuonekana au kuwasha.
    Guttate psoriasis is common and affects 0.5–2% of individuals in the paediatric age group. Guttate psoriasis typically presents with an abrupt onset of numerous, small, scattered, tear-drop-shaped, scaly, erythematous, pruritic papules and plaques. Sites of predilection include the trunk and proximal extremities. There may be a history of preceding streptococcal infection. Koebner phenomenon is characteristic. Guttate psoriasis may spontaneously remit within 3–4 months with no residual scarring, may intermittently recur and, in 40–50% of cases, may persist and progress to chronic plaque psoriasis. Given the possibility for spontaneous remission within several months, active treatment may not be necessary except for cosmetic purposes or because of pruritus. On the other hand, given the high rates of persistence of guttate psoriasis and progression to chronic plaque psoriasis, some authors suggest active treatment of this condition.
