Dandruff/Seborrheic Dermatitis/Psoriasis?

Question

How do you determine which one you have? They all seem to have the same symptoms.

Answer 1

Well, I don't know about the othe two, but I know about psoriasis because it's what I have. It is characterized but raised red blotches on the skin that scale over and flake off, and if the flakes are removed with a finger or other object, the area tends to bleed a little. Depending on your condition, this can sometimes be severe. It can be anywhere on the body, and in my case in on my scalp and small areas of my face. The blotches can become irritated and inflamed, and VERY itchy. Psoriasis can be triggered by many factors: heredity, stress, weight problems, smoking, weather - there are many causes. From what I have researched, the body regenerates skin cells every thirty days, about once a month. But with psoriasis, it regenerates up to 30 times faster than that, so about once a day. And depending on what area of the body is affected, it can be very embarassing. In my case I check the mirror several times a day to make sure I don't have any flakes forming on my face. Sadly, there is no cure for this condition, but many remedies are available. But they don't work the same for everyone. The type I use is called Dermarest, which works well for me. But it may not work as well for the next person. Hope that helps in some way! Good luck!!

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!

I was diagnosed with psoriasis at age 14 and now I am 36 years old. You can say that I have tried just about every medicine both approved by FDA and trial without much success. Examples include Enbrel, Humira, oral meds, creams, oils, salts, coal tar, etc and the list is much more extensive that I can't even remember all of the names. But recently after someone shared this video https://tr.im/psoriasisCure2015DWhX everything has changed. My psoriasis completely cleared by putting these changes in place. I only wish I'd taken photos of before and after because it truly has been miraculous. I am getting married in Oct, 2015 and I am wearing a strapless gown that also shows my back and I am confident (not like before) that my skin will be soft and pretty vs red and flakey.

You go to a dermatologist. Psoriasis is quite different from the other two though, it causes big red patches that don't flake off so much, they are flaked off, but they don't shed so much I think.
