Hello lybrate-user, as you are suffering from psoriasis, psoriasis is genetic disorder triggered due to stressful conditions and irregular life style.
Psoriasis has three stages. First stage is when disease remain on skin and there are scaly patches.
Second stage comes when there is pitting on nails and in last stage it enter the joints and there is pain in small joints.
Generally patient use steroidal application on patches which give temporary relief and disease reappear after 2/3 days.
In severe cases methotrexate is used which is not a safer option and is liver toxic.
Ayurveda has got a complete remedy for psoriasis. It is a safer option and can be used for longer duration without any side effects.
Ayurvedic external application give very quick results with sun exposure in clearing the scales and internal treatment does not allow the disease to re appear.
Psoriasis is a manageable disease and can be managed with ease and effectively using ayurveda. Coconut oil is best remedy for dry skin to be applied after taking bath. You can use salytar soap.
You should use 3 gms of haldi with milk helps in psoriasis patients.

Psoriasis is manageable, the traditional approach is to start with the mildest treatments topical creams and ultraviolet light therapy (phototherapy) and then progress to stronger ones only if necessary. The goal is to find the most effective way to slow cell turnover with the fewest possible side effects coupled with a dietary therapy specially designed to manage psoriasis. Researchers found several studies linking obesity to an increased risk for psoriatic disease. These studies indicate that a higher body mass index (bmi) is associated with an elevated risk for developing psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, as well as increased disease severity. Obesity may provide the nudge that triggers psoriasis in people who are already predisposed to it, researchers also found that in overweight individuals, losing weight may improve the effectiveness of treatments. So if you lose weight, you may be reducing fuel for the fire. I being a both a registered dietitian (rd) and doctor have been successfully helping patients with their problems through a holistic approach using customized therapeutic diet and medications. I will also suggest home remedies.

Hello. Propysalic oint is required for managing psoriasis but can have side effects if used for more than 3 weeks. It's a steroid so should be used only under doctor's supervision.
