I am 68 yrs. of age male and suffering from psoriasis since last 2 months. Initially it affected my forearms. Occasional Itchings were severe and abrasions seen with scratching. My dermatologist prescribed a steroid cream, an Alaspan tablet, Mild liquid soap and greasy moisturisers. The problem subsided for few days and now it re-appears on more areas on upper arms, neck, knees and below. Itching sensation returns. My doctor did not mentioned about possible reccurence. My dilemas --> should I go for natural remedies, if I hold back from scratcing will it improve conditions or do I again return to medicines? What are best solutions for each? Thank you in advance.
