hi, welcome to HCM & Thanks for asking,
There is no cure for psoriasis, but treatment will usually help keep the condition under control.
apply emollient containing urea+ lactic acid.
apply potent steroid clobetasol+salicylic acid+coal tar twice daily.
avoid scratching and rubbing, as it will increase you disease activity.thanks
