I have had psoriasis for almost 30 years, acquired it when I was 13. I have never been told that it is reversible. I'm a little confused as to what Djembe is trying to say.
There is no cure for this disease, just treatments to help curtail the symptoms which are sometimes very painful. A lot of the prescription meds are extremely expensive and are only prescribed for a short period of time, then you must move on to something else. My whole life I've had the ordeal of trying to "control" my heartbreak of psoriasis.

Despite the rather superficial analyses and therapeutic approaches of dermatologists who think the skin exists entirely separated from the rest of the body, and who rely on toxic substances like antibiotics and cortisone, Psoriasis is usually a completely reversible condition ( I know, I had it), which requires the removal of commonly misrepresented non-foods like wheat and dairy, and more importantly an in depth bowel cleanse (cf. Jensen's "Tissue Cleansing through Bowel Management"). The skin is after all the largest organ of elimination. When the septic tank backs up, the skin suffers, and will not repair until the state of autointoxication is addressed, and the liver and bowel can rid the body of these toxins.

Take him to a Dermatologist, There are some new medicines today that work great. It is not a cure, since there isn't any, but he will keep the psoriasis under control.
They are Enbrel , Raptiva, Amivive and Humaria. These are shots and the patients are taught to give their own.
Seek the Dr's advice which to use.

There has been some evidence that your diet can be the problem.
He should review what he is eating. Too much fat, sugar, not enough fiber and healthy foods? Does he drink 8 glasses of water a day?
Sometimes sunlight helps. Have him expose the area to 15 minutes of sun, no lotion, at a time of day when he won't get burned (before 10 and after 3). Hope this helps.

I've heard that walnut-tree leaves help
an acquaintance tried them and said it helped
she said she used to put the leaves in the hot water while having a bath (no exact proportion, think of it as a large amount of herb tea and approximate)
your friend could try it, see if it works
(there is an inconvenience though, the tub gets brown)

Many people have reported amazing results for psoriasis using this product after medical treatments failed. It is an adaptogen so it goes to work on all auto-immune deficiencies.
Contact me for more information.

he must see a doctor, psoriasis treatment has many side effects so when taken you need to be under medical observation!!!! and psoriasis never goes away once you got it, you have periods where you don't have it but than it reappears, mostly under major stress so he should avoid stress
