Skin conditions(psoriasis)?
See a good dermatologist, and he'll go through the range of treatments available. I know it's tough, I got it when I was 22, and part of the problem is that some treatments work well for one person, but not for others. So basically you just have to go with the recommendations of the dermatologist, and try different things out.


The thing that cleared my skin the most was PUVA - both with using the pills, as well as the bath. However, there are lots of different ointments and creams as well.


Good luck. Hang tough...

Reply:First-line treatments include emollients, skin softeners and topical drug therapy applied to the skin, such as vitamin D derivatives, tar preparations, steroids, dithranol preparations and vitamin A derivatives.





Ultraviolet B light therapy, systemic medication (methotrexate, ciclosporin, aitretin, hydroxycarbamide), and biologics designed to block specific molecules in the immune system that trigger development of psoriasis (etanercept, infliximab, efalizumab) may be used under specialist hospital supervision.





Complementary therapies for treating psoriasis include acupuncture, homeopathy and herbal therapy.
Reply:Relaxation therapy can help if stress is making it worse. Self hypnosis is also good as well as your creams and other treatment. I am sending you a healing right now ..............it will improve..................... dont overtreat it with too many creams.....see a dermatologist soon. Good luck.
Reply:psorasis have no allopathy cure, it can only be supressed for some time, but due to stress it could again reappear, it is better to do pranayam(a special kind of breathing exercise,and aurvedic medicines can cure it,)do kapalabhati(name of a pranayam exersice) for 15 mins each day and with in 3 to 4 monhs it will dissappear, u could search on net about panayam+ramdev(pranayam guru+teacher).GOD bless

Reply:I don't know about other people, but for me sun light and water just make my psoriasis feel worse. Like you, I tried many creams before my doctor prescribed a cream called ketoconazole. It has worked really well for me for about 2 years now. It is made by TEVA, 60 grams and 2% cream. Ask your doctor, it has worked really well for me.
