This is way far out but my mom has psoriasis and i keep a look out for %26quot;cures%26quot;. Anyways theres this place in Turkey that has a pond with cleaning fish in it.. there are like 3 different species and each does it%26#039;s own thing. One fish will eat the dead skin off of you, while another brings healthy blood to the area and another has some type of enzyme that helps heal what the other fishes have doen. It%26#039;s suppose to work miracles... Good Luck!!!|||You don%26#039;t say what creams your Dr has prescribed, but here%26#039;s what my husband uses:
Dovonex (also called calcipotriol) which is a Vitamin D cream
Betnovate (steriod)
He also uses Aqueous cream to moisturise.
Some people swear by tar based ointments, my hubby has used them, with limited success.
What has helped him most has been UV light treatment.
However it is really important to get referred to a dermatologist, as most GPs don%26#039;t really know much about skin conditions.|||wife had this condition, she veggie, and uses SAGE WATER... boil up some sage... 1oz will do. decoct it, (boil it and strain the residue) and add to bathwater and soak yourself..she also uses porridge oats in a flannel bag... and she has lovely soft skin..|||A friend of mine also has psoriasis and has tried all the creams her doctor has prescribed her and they all failed to help at all. She purchased some emu oil and this seems to be working for her. emu oil can also be used for ezcema and other dry skin conditions and it has natural remedies.|||My boyfriend has psoriasis quite badly all over his body - he baths in the sea salt stuff regularly and uses the little bar of black soap, but I can%26#039;t see that it helps at all. Last night I put a bit of tea tree shampoo on his knees and noticed straightaway that it seemed better. Still seems better this morning. Also I put some jojoba on his arms and they also seem better this morning. I%26#039;m going to try getting him Body Shop%26#039;s Tea Tree Oil Body Wash and see if that helps. He%26#039;s also been told about the UVB treatment but apparently you need to go to the hospital every day! Not really possible if you work!|||SK cream it cost around 拢10 for 30ml tube. I have only a tel no which 01526 832491 but if you go to your search engine and type in SK cream it might come up. Sometimes it can be cause by a lack of vitamin B, also an allergy to dairy produce.|||Let%26#039;s Get Well by Adelle Davis has a good discussion on psoriasis and dietary control; Prescription for Natural Cures (Balch %26amp; Stengler), and Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine (Murray %26amp; Pizzorno) both have excellent chapters full of good advice on this most annoying condition.
All are available on Alibris.com or Amazon|||You might also look into doing an elimination diet to see if their is a certain food you are eating that may be causing your psoriasis. In fact I would recommend starting their first before using creams and herbs. You have to remember everyone is different and what works for one person may not work for you. Good luck|||Sun light, ocean water, and aloe vera straight off the plant, not in a tube or jar.|||I know a bit about herbs ( A level equivalent) I would try mixing oatmeal, or porridge with some lavender flowers, you can tie them up in a piece of cloth if you want to prevent a mess. Then put it in the bath while it running hot, this will bring out the essential elements of both herbs which will help you%26#039;re skin considerably. Please be sure the bath is not too hot, use the hot water for releasing herbal qualties/energies. You can also do it without the cloth idea, even rubbing wet soggy oatmeal on your skin will help relieve some of the rawness, as it is an emulsifier.|||My mom is a big fan of Joe Graeydon and his natural approaches. I believe he has a few books out as well; the most popular one The People%26#039;s Pharmacy: Guide to home and herbal remedies.
The book says something about Tumeric. Use it in your food, sprinkle it all over every thing and eat. This has helped a friend of hers tremendously within about 2-3 weeks it was significantly reduced and he was feeling better. He used the spice on his food; but there may be capsule supplements available now. Check with your local health food store or Herb store.
You many find that Tumeric comes in another name in an herbal cap with Boswellia...it is also called Curcumin. Both help with inflamation.
Give this a shot. It may take a bit longer being the Natural or herbal route, so be sure to give it enough time. Can%26#039;t hurt to try it. Good luck, hope you feel better.|||Sea salt, I have heard of people bathing in the dead sea and never getting psoriasis again. There is a product called Seba Med they do soap, shower and bath cream, and moisturizing cream, it stopped my eczema so maybe it will help with psoriasis. Seba Med also make sun screen lotions up to factor 60 I hope this helps.|||Ask your G.P about a referal to a dermatologist. My wife has psoriasis and she went to our local hospital for 30 mins ady to have sun lamp treatment. It worked and she hasn%26#039;t had any re occurence for 4 yrs now.|||Yuck on the fish idea.
Anyways, they are saying some kinds of UV light actually work.
And I recommend Oatmeal baths as well to my patients.|||Different things help and trigger psoriasis for people from what they eat to the products they use I personally have had psoriasis for many years and found creams don%26#039;t work or if they do it%26#039;s temporary things! I%26#039;ve found that what can help is if after shower you use a hard towel to rub your skin then put on your moisturiser I find when my skin is sore lavender oil in the bath can help when it%26#039;s very itchy I use Australian body care there body lotion can helps to came it down also loccitane sher butter lavender helps too! try qvc if your going to try different products as you get a 30 day money back guarantee if the product doesn%26#039;t suit you
Also be careful with what soap powder you use or anything that can irritate your skin that includes the foods you eat
