Hi. My Name Is XXXXXXX And I Have Been Suffering

Posted on Sat, 2 Sep 2023

Question: Hi. My name is XXXXXXX and I have been suffering from Psoriasis for the last 10 years. I have tried various medicines. They have worked but the moment I stop taking them, it comes back.

Can you please prescribe medicines for long term that can contain it? I am sending images of my hands that are affected. It generally shows up on my hands, near elbows and feet.

Brief Answer:
Heximar B and Xerina cream

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the follow up and photograph and sorry for delay in response.
It is indeed Psoriasis.
You need to understand that psoriasis can only be controlled and cannot be cured.
Apply ointment Heximar B in night and xerina cream in morning.
Use this combination for 2 months.
This should help you.
Once the lesions heal you can stop the cream and you will need to restart the creams once the lesions reappear.
This should help you.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
