The dermatologist gave me stuff that I just do not want to use. I would like an answer from a name who knows shape and knows of an alternative that worked for them. Thanks.

i have a large amount of plaques on my body, especially my hands, feet, and elbow. i’m allergic to one of the cremes i was perscribed (salex) and need something that will treat my psoriasis quickly as i’m moving next month and can’t keep being paid treatment here and it would probably take a even as before i could find a new dermatologist. is there anything anyone recomends that i should question my doctor about? (i’m also using taclonex ointment, cutivate lotion, and colbex spray, but these aren’t working nearly as well as the salex which i can’t use)

Mr. E. questioned:


I consulted a skin specialist,I was diagnosed to have psoriasis. But my dermatologist told me, I was only suffering from skin allergy. My derma’s basis is the absence of a yellowish/brownish discoloration of fingernails,common to all psoriasis patients. Who would i believe?

I have suffered from psoriasis my total life. When I was small it started on the back of my leg and worked it way up my thigh. As I got grown-up, It started to spred more. Id get patches on my knees or elbows and it was nothing that creams or topical treatments wouldnt cure…

The grown-up im being paid the worse its be converted into.. Its now covering about 80% of my body and not only is it physically discomforting, Its also affecting me mentally. The stares and questions from people who are unfamiliar with this illness makes me feel like I am something that stepped out of a horror movie..

Its hard to deal with because besides my psoriasis I am a very pretty 21 year ancient. I cant wear bathing suits or even shorts, and events like tonight, when my brother graduates high school, Im going to be wearing a long sleeved shirt in 90 degree weather.
I would really like to know if a name knew a home remedy or something inexpensive that would reduce the appearence of my “blotches”. I dont have medical insurance, so a trip to the dermatologist is pretty much out of the question. Ive also tried the tanning bed, but have found that the skin under my psoriasis becomes burnt and makes my even dryer than before.. Im willing to try anything..

Im using some over the counter treatment called Psoriasin, but no luck with it yet. Also ive been using things like, Selson Blue as body wash..

Any help would be Momentously appreciated!
Ive tried the Enbrel treatment, and was on it for 6 months. It worked somewhat, but even with insurance, I was paying over $200 a month, and the price without it is like $1500 a month.. Cant handle that….

rosey questioned:


I have very dry scalp (psoriasis) on my scalp. I have tried innumerable shampoos/conditioners and lidex solution, but it is a constant battle. I know it is a chronic condition. But due to my coarse hair and the psoriasis covering the majority of my scalp, it is very hard for me to treat on my own. I’m wondering if there are any treatments you can get through a dermatologist, where they treat the scalp at their office? Does anyone know if this is available?

Kimbabub questioned:


I saw someones answer about Champori products, just wanted to see if anyone has tried that. If not then any opinions besides neutrogena would be splendid and without a dermatologist, she has already received a couple of things from one and it helped some but not that splendid. I don’t know what they were besides one was a shampoo.
Thanks
