My father is suffering from Chronic Psoriasis His body is covered with plaques, it has been 10 yrs since it first started. And now it’s at its worse. Nights are extremely difficult. He takes a strong sleeping pill to sleep. Which give him 2-3 hours of sleep. He is also a heart patient with a v weak kidney and weak liver. High cholesterol. High BP. He recently after trying several things, homeopathy. Ayurveda. Is now had a bioresonance consultation where they have given him a bunch of supplements which are for detoxing his insides. He is also now on a gluten free. Sugar free. Dairy free and soya free diet. With many food restrictions. No lentils. No nightshades. Vegetarian. Organic as much as possible etc. No caffeine Suddenly he is breaking out, new patches have started to come up rapidly. Could this by any chance be a sign of recovery??

Warren do you think it matters if I have the blueberries with natural yogurt or should I just eat them on their own without anything else?. thanks.

Hi I’ve suffered from p for 10 years and it’s just got worse:( I’ve tried most of the crap they give us from the derm that makes our skin in most cases worse!! And loss of hair when taking acitretin etc ... but anyway I was on Facebook and see an ad for yet another wonder cream (herbal Chinese salve ) so obviously I thought yeah just another con! I read the reviews of the people on Facebook and even wrote to the to check they weren’t lying 🤥 they all wrote back and gave the cream 10/10 so I thought ok last time I try lol!!! I bought it on eBay which was much cheaper!! Thinking I have nothing to loss , sooooo I tried it last Monday with no confidence in it til when I woken the next morning, my hands which normally look like beetroot were light pink and no lose skin !! So now after 5 days the improvements have been amazing!!! The ingredients stands that it has no harmful chemicals like steroids and I know if I have taken them after 10 years because I become sensitive around my neck area... the cream is called Zudaifu and is from China, it takes about 2 weeks delivery time and do your own research but I feel this is the best salve I’ve tried in 10 years!! Good luck!!! Martin

Hello, I'm new to the site. Having recently been diagnosed with psoriasis, I've never had it before so I'm guessing the trigger was stress. I'm off with work related stress the my dad was diagnosed with cancer and passed away within 3 weeksof diagnosis and at the same time my husband had a great attack. The psoris is all over my body hair, oalms of hands/feet and all over my body. Ive seen a dermatologist who perscribed different products for different areas of my body. My abdomen, arms, legs and vack I'm using Exorex and Balneum Plus Cream the dermatologist said my psoriasis would get worse before it gets better. It has got worse in fact the plaques are redder and even more itchy, I have slso I some places got a rash under my skin,which is, very itchy, and feels hot to touch when I put either of the treatments on my skin itches more and burns.is ths normal or am I sensitive eto this treatment. At the end of the month I start photolight treatment. Any advice would greatly appreciated. Thank you Deb

Hi, I have been suffering with psoriasis since I was 5 and currently in the middle of a bad flare up. In the last 2 years I have also developed psoriatic arthritis and am currently on Otezla which keeps it all at bay..but sadly not a cure. When I have flare ups I have Accupuncture which is helping me greatly, after 2-3 sessions the relief is incredible! I’ve tried all creams and medications (methotrexate didn’t make an ounce of difference) so needed an alternative route. I would highly recommend it. Claire x

Have had psoriasis for about 15 years. Ignored it at first as didn’t understand what it was, once I noticed the rashes getting bigger I went to the doctors, they gave me dovobet gel that I have used ever since as the doctor says this is the best on the market, the instructions say not to be used after 4 weeks of use, and I’m still using it, nothing really happens, but it doesn’t get worse. The sun definitely helps, whilst on holiday it always gets a bit better. I’m now using my dovobet after I shower in a morning, I’m using vitamin d sun beds at least 3/4 times a week and using ZUDAIFU cream that I can only find on eBay (recommended by a friend), the main things that I can say is that I don’t have flakey skin anymore, but I don’t find that anything makes it better, it just sort of contains it. Lots of people on here are suggesting different medication, but I’m not sure what help as my doctor says there are different types of psoriasis and I’m beginning to question her experience of psoriasis.

Ianplattuk: just be aware that Zudaifu cream probably contains steroids- unlisted and in unknown concentrations. Many chinese origin ointments sold as "herbal" contain steroids and antifungal ingredients. They are not available to buy from regular channels in UK because they are unregulated. If it is not delivering an improvement over using dovobet alone, I would recommend to stop using it. In my case Dovobet delivers a complete removal of the plaques and red patches fade pretty well completely (but not permanently).

For a gp to tell anyone 'this is the best on the market'.....is total bollocks....how would they know. If I had a dog as deranged as that I'd put it to sleep. Different treatments for different patients....UV has an adverse effect on me. Dairy products also make it worse....or did. My miracle cure is Exorex....a coal tar lotion, available on prescription. It takes approximately 4 weeks before the plaques start to reduce in size and the redness starts to go away.....good luck......and change your gp.

Hi All, Just thought i would let you know about a natural cream which ive spoken about on numerous post which really works wonders for me, and tbh it’s the only cream, except steroid cream, where I’ve noticed and big difference in flare ups! Its a natural psoriasis treatment cream from La Lune Noire, ive just checked their website and its still on sale for £12. well worth a try, I think I’m on my 3rd or 4th jar now - love it! I only get flare ups on my face and arms and it really helps to calm my skin. Hope this helps, Jess x

Wow amazing!!! I've had psoriasis for about 11 years in the past few years it has gotten really bad I've tried all sorts of cream in the past prescribed and non prescribed does help but never clears it for good plus some creams are inconvenient due to the effort required behind it. Just recently I've read an article a woman told to a news agency stating that cetraben has cleared her psoriasis and the cream is not expensive compared to others. So I decided to try it as I had given up hope for a long time. To my astonishment of using this for a couple of days I've noticed huge improvements in my skin my entire knee down is covered in psoriasis and other parts of the body but not as bad as the legs. I am amazed at the outcome and the reaction and time. I started noticing the very first day my outer layer of skin came off very easily and there wasn't any bleeding like before it was very itchy and couldn't help unfortunately. Now it's getting better every day something different as in improvement I wanted to share this as its a huge relief for me to see such results in few days I want everyone who has psoriasis to try this cetraben cream but always consult a pharmacist or doctor before using as not everyone is the same. I will keep you updated with results this is my 4th day and I am so pleased with the outcome pray and stay strong never let anything put you down. Peace.
