Hello,
Thanks for the query,

Psoriasis cannot be totally cured.

It can be only controlled.

You can use steroid creams to control this.

Dont worry it will not itch more with cream

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

And get the medication prescribed.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
