Hi,

You said you suffer from plaque psoriasis on Hands and feet for three years. You consulted many dermatologist in WB. You did not get satisfactory result. You want to know whether it is curable or not.

I can understand your anxiety for psoriasis. The disease you have is autoimmune skin disease. There is no exact cause. It may be precipitated by anxiety,tension, dry wheather,drugs,trauma..etc.

So, remember, psoriasis is a controllable disease. It may relapse at any time.

Methotraxate,acitretin..are the drugs used by many dermatologists. So, you consult dermatologist and have proper treatment to have control of psoriasis.

Have patience for the good result.

Thanks.
