How To Get Rid Of Psoriasis Permanently?

I am Venkat & 33 years old. I am suffering from palm psoriasis for the past 13 years. My skin is breaking at both left and right hands. When I am taking the medicine it is cured, if I stop it continues again. Please suggest me how to get rid of psoriasis.

Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
Psoriasis is a disease like diabetes or hypertension in the sense that it cannot be cured completely. It can very well be controlled. It may go into remission for long duration , but it may come back any time. Light thereapy (Narrow band UVB) seems to be an option which you may try as your psoriasis only over hands.
Hope this helped,
Take care.
