Whay is the best treatment for psoriasis as i have it and it can knock your confidence.?

Answer 1

This is not a cure but its a soothing element,
Lavender oil, My father had psoriasis and it helped him a lot when it became red and angry.
Also he eventually went to have that treatment where you lie in water and the fishes eat your skin sorry cant remember what that treatment is called, but it worked after about 6months he was almost clear, and he literally had it all overr his body

The fish are calledc Suckermouthed cyprinid Garra rufa.

Also try Omega 3 oil

Answer 2

I've had psoriasis all my life and i noticed stress etc makes it flare up. Taking oil based supplements can help, but most things including the creams the doctor gives you only reduces the itching. It does nothing much about the appearance.
I did notice that sunshine, natural or tanning beds really clears it up.
I know if you have very severe psoriasis you may be self conscious about going out with skin showing in public so do try the tanning beds, don't over do them though i saw a great change after only a few sessions. And even when i stop doing tanning sessions for months the psoriasis didn't come back as bad.
Hope this helps!!

ps: Any Shampoos or shower creams or anything to eat whatever, with tea tree oil in it is really great. And tea tree oil products leave your skin feeling clean which i know mine never felt with ordinary products.

Answer 3

Cure psoriasis starting today - even if your doctor or dermatologist says "it's impossible!"
I've just followed a guide called psoriasis free for life that completely cured me of this debilitating and embarrassing disease in less than a month!
Remember, this will not only treat the symptoms that you do see:
the red, inflamed itchy skin.
The silvery scales that seem to erupt for no reason.
The burning or bleeding that occurs around your joints.
The cracking, oozing and painful patches on your skin.
But it also treats the underlying cause of psoriasis - the part you don't see - the actual immune system deficiency that causes these itchy patches to appear and scale over.

You can definitely get back your life, your confidence and your self esteem!

Answer 4

Psoriasis is a disease that takes place when the body’s immune system mistakenly believes healthy skin cells to be enemy cells and starts to produce many more new cells to replace these cells. This is the reason why there is no cure for psoriasis and medications applied to treat psoriasis are only able to remove the symptoms temporarily. Don't go the "cream route", it's only just a waste of time and money. Been there Done that!

You need to read "Psoriasis Free For Life" by Katy Wilson if you want to cure your psoriasis for good. Available online also @ http://www.psoriasisforeverfree.com It's a book that shows you how to cure psoriasis naturally in a few days. I cured my psoriasis permanently in 6 days after reading this book. Good luck!

Answer 5

Currently, there is no cure for psoriasis. However, there are many treatment options that can clear psoriasis for a period of time. Each treatment has advantages and disadvantages, and what works for one patient may not be effective for another. Board-certified dermatologists have the medical training and experience needed to determine the most appropriate treatments for each patient.

Diagnosis
There are several forms of psoriasis, and each form has unique characteristics that allow dermatologists to visually identify psoriasis to determine what type, or types, of psoriasis is present. Sometimes a skin biopsy will be performed to confirm the diagnosis.

To choose the most appropriate treatment method, dermatologists consider several factors:

Type of psoriasis

Severity (the amount of skin affected)

Where psoriasis is located

Patient’s age and medical history

Effects psoriasis has on patient’s overall physical and emotional
well-being

Types of Treatment
Psoriasis treatments fall into 3 categories:

Topical (applied to the skin) – Mild to moderate psoriasis

Phototherapy (light, usually ultraviolet, applied to the skin) – Moderate to severe psoriasis

Systemic (taken orally or by injection or infusion) – Moderate, severe or disabling psoriasis

While each of these therapies is effective, there are also drawbacks.

Some topicals are messy and may stain clothing and skin. Phototherapy can require 2 to 5 weekly visits to a dermatologist’s office or psoriasis clinic for several weeks. Many of the systemic medications have serious side effects and must be combined or rotated with other therapies to maximize effectiveness and minimize side effects. Research is being conducted to find therapies that provide safe, effective, easy-to-use treatment options that provide long-term relief.

Answer 6

Camomile cream/ointment covers it and guards from infection. I've never had psoriasis but know there's no cure. I occasionally flare up with eczema when I'm stressed and find the baby cream called "Sudocrem" for nappy rash etc. to be really helpful. Vit E cream/oil is also said to help, so is calendula. Tea tree is great for almost anything. I've used the steroid type creams, they make me itch even more and do nothing further (I guess it prevents scars).

Try anything that contains a lot of moisture to soothe and keep the skin hydrated and try take Vit E caps and use lotion externally.

The sun radiates Vit D which can be very helpful but, stay out of the sun when it's at its most damaging - 11h00 to 15h00.

Good luck.

Answer 7

Please see the webpages for more details on Psoriasis.
In the present state of knowledge, psoriasis is incurable, but the eruption can usually be cleared to a greater or less extent at any given time. It is absolutely unforgivable to tell the patient that nothing can be done. Some form of treatment should always be prescribed, even for the most resistant cases, and every effort made to maintain their morale.

Answer 8

Check your diet. - if you want to really manage your skin then take a look at what your putting into your body.

You can try creams etc, but thats what your putting ontop, short term solutiion - you skin is reacting from whats happening inside.

Definately do at least a week+ long food diary. note down everything your eating, how your feeling during the day, and take notice of how your body is reacting.

If you want a life long solutioin you have to seak to understand the problem.

i went on one of these retreats - and Jason (the juice master) had psoriasis when he was younder and now its non existent, apart from a few scars. He knows ALOT about food. I have excesma and asthma and now its totally under control. I feel so much more confident knowing that I can manage my own life - and get on with the things that matter.

Answer 9

Don't let it be an embarrasement to you (it's surprising how many more people have it besides yourself).
I found that plenty of sunshine, or an infra red lamp helps, and I also, in desperation tried Savlon which took a lot of the redness and pain out of it. It is a nervous complaint so try not to get stressed out. Good luck.

Answer 10

I had that for a few months, my whole body was covered. It was simply down to stress - major stress. The doctor gave me some creams etc but they didn't work. I just had to rest - took about 3 more months for it to go away.
