Suggest Treatment For Psoriasis

I had psoriasis since I hit puberty. It started on my elbows and knees. When I was 17 I started having red bumps on my chest. I thought it was some sort of allergic reaction and it would go away over time but I m 27 and it never changed. I went to a doctor years ago several time and was always only prescribed rash ointment which didn t work at all. Now I have psoriasis on my fist, chest, knees, elbows, and recently starting to have it on the top of my crack. I can t do sit ups, or sit down the way I use to with out it being irritated. I seen commercials everyday for years about a injection that clears it up but it has so many side effects I would be better off living with psoriasis. Is there no non life threating cure for psoriasis. I used every cream and every home remedies and nothing seems to work.

Hi..

Psoriasis is disturbing skin disease in day to day life mainly because of its appearance and the hindrance in carrying out routine activities. But nothing to worry. Nowadays there are a good number of medications for its successful treatment. Many patients have benefited from the same. Most of the times home remedies tend to aggravate psoriasis. Psoriasis requires a personal dermatologist consultation and a thorough assessment. I advise you to visit your nearest dermatologist for the same. Psoriasis is very much treatable. Please go ahead and all the best!
