Palmoplanter psoriasis

Hi, I have had palmoplanter pustulosis aka PPP since 2023. I have chosen to look at the problem from a more natural way. I found out what I could do to help my body. There is no cure or treatment that provides one. My understanding is that it is hit or miss with the various band aids offered by the dermatologist. I don’t take any medications. I also do not eat out, eat nothing processed, nothing with wheat or brown rice. I eat fresh fruits, vegetables, white rice and flourless bread. I also retired and so managed stress aspect of what triggers and out break. It is a lot! I sleep with my hands lubricated with ointments ( no lanolin or alcohol ) and put them in vinyl gloves for the night. I do the same for my feet using plastic disposable booties. It hydrates the skin nicely. I remove the scales with a sterilized clipper so as not to pull or rip the skin causing lesions. I still have outbreaks with the pustules remaining small and the outbreaks less frequent. Unfortunately the psoriasis part sticks around. Keep hydrated. It is a lot. For me I would rather the natural way even though it is hard. Also only man made materials on your hands or feet. And when you order a shoe go one size up keeping in mind that you want a roomy toe box. Regards, Judy B

Hi I suffer with PPP. My hands first exploded with pustules in 2022 and I was told there is no cure. I've had one brief period of remission and currently have a really sore patch on the butt of my left palm. It is starting to ease slowly. I have steroid cream and wear gloves when out in public because it looks horrendous. I believe diet can affect it so try to eat as clean as I can. Lots of moisturising is all we can do, I use Zerocream. Unfortunately we have to learn to live with this condition, which can be debilitating at times, both physically and mentally.
