U can do the following to ease the symptoms of psoriasis
1. Prevent dry skin
use a humidifier to keep the air in your home or office moist. This can help prevent dry skin before it starts.
Sensitive skin moisturizers are also great at keeping your skin supple and preventing plaques from forming.
2. Avoid fragrances
most soaps and perfumes have dyes and other chemicals in them that may irritate your skin. They can make you smell great, but they also can inflame psoriasis.
3. Eat healthfully diet may play a role in managing psoriasis.
Eliminating red meat and fatty snacks may help reduce flare-ups triggered by such foods. Cold water fish, seeds, nuts, and omega-3 fatty acids are known for their ability to reduce inflammation.
4. Soak your body
hot water may be an irritant for your skin. However, a lukewarm bath can soothe the itching and infiltrate scales and plaques.
Moisturize immediately after your bath for double benefits.
5. Reduce stress
any chronic condition like psoriasis can be a source of stress. This can often turn into a vicious cycle because stress itself can worsen psoriasis symptoms.
In addition to reducing stress whenever possible, consider incorporating stress-reducing practices such as yoga and meditation.
6. Avoid alcohol
alcohol is a trigger for many people who have psoriasis.
7. Stop smoking
avoid tobacco it can make your symptoms more severe.

Psoriasis cannot be cured, but it can be managed very well with medications. Occasional use of propysalic will not help you. You need a proper course of treatment with a dermatologist, and you need to follow up with them as well. Please do direct online consultation with photos if you need to.
I hope both the medicines have been prescribed by a dermatologist. Yes you can use. I usually advise it otherwise, moisturiser first followed by propysalic cream.

Hi !
Psoriasis is an auto immune inflammatory skin disorder with relapses and remissions.BP ,SUGAR AND THYROID ARE FEW AUTO IMMUNE DISEASES. PSORIASIS IS ALSO ONE SUCH DISEASE. Regular maintaininance with balanced diet and active stress free life style is important. Neither Allopathy nor Ayurvedic or homeopathic can cure psoriasis . Take balanced diet and include plenty of fruits, vegetables and omega rich foods like flax seeds , Salmon, sardines, and other fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Treatment depends on multiple factors like pt age, co morbid conditions, response to treatment etc .
Use moisturizer as frequently as you can to prevent the scales shedding too much . Soap always select a cleansing lotion , to prevent dryness. Dont use propysalic NF6 too much as it can cause rebound flare .

Good afternoon. Psoriasis is a chronic condition characterised by flares and remissions. The medicine you mentioned is indeed used for psoriasis.
- if you are using it without the permission or under supervision of your treating dermatologist, kindly refrain from doing so.
- if you have been prescribed the same for psoriasis of the genital areas, follow your treating dermatologist's instructions to the letter with regular follow ups - for the very simple fact that he/she has seen the lesions and I have not. - creams for psoriasis are prescribed based on many factors - including thickness, redness, itchiness, and body part affected.
