There are several treatment modalities for Psoriasis. Drugs and Ultraviolet therapy are the corner stones. Some drugs are simple, some others could have side effects. GP has only a restricted role.
It has to be treated by the Dermatologist - the treatment is tailored depending on the extent and degree of the involvement.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
