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.

Hi, i'm 23 years old female. I've been suffering form psoriasis since 13 yrs. I had scaling just over 6 spots (circular in shape) on my legs & scaling on my scalp only during winter. I've been taking ayurvedic medicine (external application & blood purifier syrup) which gave me great results. But 5 years back i've started consulting a dermatologist because I couldn't continue the ayurvedic medicine as i've moved to another place. The dermatologist suggested me propysalic nf6 for skin & onabet sd for scalp, it reduced scaling but I had scaling at new spots. I was asked to continue applying the ointment. But i've started to feel pain at the spots when I touched it hard. My skin became delicate & it looked as it was burnt. The dermatologist told to stop using propysalic nf6 & suggested tacrovera 0.03% 4 months back. My skin didn't turn back to its normal form. Still it looks like fire burnt scar. Dr. Prescribed scar end ointment but still no improvement. Do I have any remedy for my problem? Only those spots were I applied propysalic nf6 looks bad. I never mind having psoriasis because it's under control but the scar left by the ointment is depressing me. I don't have any problem with the other spots were I didn't apply propysalic nf6 because it looks normal (scaling stops & turns back to normal skin. So, pls suggest me some treatment for my problem. Thanks in advance.

Hi, methotrexate is an immunosuppressive medicine so should be taken only under doctor's supervision. After initiation of medical therapy with methotrexate, follow-up tests should include monitoring of cbc, renal function test, and liver function tests weekly for 4 weeks and then at least bi-monthly. Scalp psoriasis if mild to moderate can be managed with applications and shampoos. You can go for a ketoconazole and salicylic acid containing shampoos twice to thrice a week for head bath.

Hi, topisal lotion cannot be continued for long since it is a steroid and can give side effects. Use scalpe plus shampoo for head bath twice a week for a month. See a dermatologist if no satisfactory response.
