A nurse in the outpatient clinic is assessing a client who has psoriasis. The nurse should expect which of the following findings?

A. "Silvery, white scales": This is the classic presentation of psoriasis, a chronic skin disorder that results in the rapid turnover of skin cells, leading to thick, scaly patches, usually on the scalp, elbows, and knees. B. Serous drainage: This is more common in conditions like infected wounds or abscesses, not psoriasis. C. Intense pain: Psoriasis can cause discomfort, but it is typically not painful unless there are complications such as cracks or secondary infections. D. Unilateral lesions: Psoriasis typically affects both sides of the body symmetrically, not unilaterally.
