Hi Rohit how are you ,first of all I would like to say psoriasis is not caused by mucus ,it is a auto immune disorder where body by it self produces it , secondly it is very common skin disorder around 2% population of whole human kind is suffering with this so don't get scared of it . there are lot of treatments available as following
1. PUVA therapy 2.narrow band UVB 3. Laser therapy with Excimer Laser ( very effective )
treatment plan would be decided by your dermatologist ,after examining you .
now you take first step by contacting your dermatologist Dr Prakash Roy
