ask your doctor

theres various creams and herbal remedies, as a student nurse, we often have a cream that we apply, i don't know what they use in the states, but it is so common that its easily treated, goto your doctor. There are many treatments available but because of its chronic recurrent nature psoriasis is a challenge to treat.


my husband is a sufferer and we have found that a good diet no alcohol and definitely no ciggies help loads..also try meditation etc as stress is also a toxin and a good old fashioned rub down with lavender oil does no harm whatsoever..oh and majorly plenty of water too


Unfortunately there is no cure. My brothers all have psoriasis one of them severe. He says that if his diet is good and he tries to avoid stress that it helps. He also uses a lots of creams and goes for frequent short sessions on a sunbed ie 2-3 minutes

I am not a doctor, but I have had psoriasis since I was 13 years of age. I am now 41 and still have it. Although there is no cure as yet, there are many treatments to alleviate the condition depending on its severity and location.

One treatment is tar baths, which is exactly as it sounds. You take a small amount of special formulation coal tar solution (a couple of capfuls usually) and pour them into a comfortably hot bath. U then soak your body in this solution for a period of time, usually 20 minutes. There are also a variety of creams to rub into your skin, but this must be done with care, as they are quite strong.

When the psoriasis is especially severe, your doctor may recommend that you go to hospital for a period of time and have some intensive treatment. This comprises all of the above treatments plus sun lamp treatment, where you go in a room and Ultra-Violet (UV) rays are shone on your body to ease your symptoms.

You should not attempt any self treatment of this condition, you should see a doctor first, who will refer you to the appropriate specialist in your area.

Psoriasis is a hereditary condition, which is more prevalent in girls than boys, but no one seems to know why that is the case. It is aggravated by high stress levels and sunlight (although in some cases sunlight is helpful, especially artificial sunglight such as solariums). I would advise you to check this with your doctor and specialist first as not everyone has the same symptoms with the condition.

I hope this helps shed some light on things for you.


No cure here either, but I have had psoriasis for 20+ years. I am a RN and I try to stay current on new treatments. i have used creams, ointments, tar preparations, UVA and UVB tanning and even $20,000 immunosuppressive injections(sure glad insurance paid). My 10 year old daughter was diagnosed 3 months ago. Within 1-2 weeks after we noticed the first spots, her whole body was covered. We went to the dermatologist and immediately began tanning for 5 weeks, daily. She showed moderate improvement. But about 4 weeks ago, a uncle visited and sweared by Nivea Original Lotion for his psoriasis. We used it for two weeks and saw great improvement in both of us. I was skeptical myself but thought I would give it a try since it was inexpensive. We use it daily after we shower. The first few times we applied it , it sort of burned the most irritated places, but now no problems. Hope this helps, you never know.

There is no cure for psoriasis. It is a genetic skin condition. There are meds that are useful in keeping at bay. See a DR. Also try sunning or a tanning bed http://andycaine.psoriasis1.hop.clickbank.net
