Home Remedies for Psoriasis

Psoriasis is one of the most chronic skin diseases that are characterized by thick, red, silvery, scaled patches on the skin. It can also be defined as an inflammatory skin condition. It affects both sexes and usually appears in the age of 15-30 years. It is rarely found in infants and elderly people. It is not contagious and is caused by faulty signals in the immune system. There are five types of psoriasis and they are:

Plague psoriasis
It is the most common of all. In this type of psoriasis patches of raised, reddish skin covered by silvery-white scale appears on almost all parts of the body.

Guttate psoriasis
Small red spots appear on the skin

Pustular psoriasis
White pustules surrounded by red skin appears on the skin

Inverse psoriasis
Smooth, red lesions are formed in the folds of the skin.

Erythrodermic psoriasis
There is itching, pain and redness of the skin.

Causes of Psoriasis

The various causes of psoriasis are:

Heredity factor
Abnormality in the metabolism of amino acids and proteins
Seasonal changes
Injury to the skin
Various infections

The hot Epsom salts bath has been proven valuable in the treatment of psoriasis. Application of olive oil after the Epsom salt bath is also effective and also one of the effective home remedies for psoriasis.

Regular seawater baths and application of seawater over the affected parts once a day is highly beneficial. This is one of the best psoriasis remedy.

Bitter gourd is a valuable home remedy for psoriasis. Take a cup of fresh juice of this vegetable, mixed with a teaspoon of limejuice on an empty stomach daily for four to six months. This is a good diet for psoriasis.

The use of mudpacks is also beneficial for the psoriasis. They absorb and remove the toxins from the affected areas.

Cabbage leaves can be used in the form of compresses. They can be applied on the affected area after removing the thick veins and washing them thoroughly. This is also one of the effective home remedies for psoriasis.

Sunlight is the best and natural remedy for psoriasis.

Vitamin E therapy has been found effective in the psoriasis treatment. A daily dose of 200-800 I.U is recommended as they reduce itching of the area.

Lecithin is also considered as a remarkable remedy for the psoriasis treatment.

Psoriasis cure - 6-9 lecithin capsules in a day are recommended.

Application of Aloe Vera gel and garlic oil on the affected area is also beneficial and is good natural remedy for psoriasis

Application of cashew nut oil on the affected areas at night after a thorough wash of the face is highly beneficial and is one of the effective home remedies for psoriasis.

Lotions for psoriasis patients

Wheat germ oil and castor oil
Mix one teaspoon each of wheat germ oil and castor oil in one cup of sunflower oil and rub this lotion on the affected areas. This is very good natural remedy for psoriasis.

Calendula
Add 2 drops of calendula oil and one drop of oregano oil to one small cup of olive oil. Apply on the affected area. This is another effective psoriasis remedy.

Marigold lotion
Boil 4 marigold heads in 4 cups of water for two minutes. Allow it to cool and then apply it on the affected area and if the scalp is affected massage it in to the scalp and wash it with mild shampoo. Add lemon juice or cider vinegar to the rinsing water for a thorough wash.

Psoriasis Remedy

I'd like any information you can give me for self healing of psoriasis.

#1 - JoAnne Johnson - 08/21/2007 - 07:29

My psoriasis has been helped so much by something i bought in the supermarket..Palmer's Olive Butter Formula with Vitamin E..Organic Olive Oil for Healthy Skin..I have been nearly driven mad with itching and have prescription creams....this is instantly soothing and the effects often last for days.

#2 - Susan ElizabethDAW - 01/21/2008 - 05:19

janne johnson try the wal mart brand of vaper rub to your psoriasis. i know 6 people at work with it and use it everyday my husband has it . 85% of his body was coved with it not any more with the vaper rub

I am 18 years old and i suffer from psoriasis. i am very very frusterated with it and it doesnt seem to be going away..im not wealthy so its hard for me to get the right creams...is there any cheap helpful ways to make it go away!?

#5 - Amy - 03/19/2008 - 12:27

There is a book called Healing Psoriasis by Dr. John Pagano, it is amazing. By following the info in the book I healed completely.

#6 - kate - 03/29/2008 - 21:34

I am so tired of psoriasis I have it on my legs and have not been able to wear shorts for a really long time now! I just got psoriasis about two years ago! I miss wearing my shorts or my skirts please someone help!!!

#7 - gina - 04/26/2008 - 20:13

I was first cursed with Psoriasis when i was 19,im 36 now and it has never gone away! Ive had brief respites while on holiday (as long as its somewhere hot) but once home (london) it returns,sometimes wif a vengence!!ive tried all the creams betnovate/donovate all topical steroid creams;none worked or helped much,one cream burnt me quite well once though,doc accidently gave me highest strength 5.0per cent instead of 0.5 wot fun...
had the light treatment after waiting 10yrs for it,that did help but its not a prolonged trtment coz of the skin cancer risks!!!!!!so im left with trying anyfing i havent already...would so appreciate ideas other than those above...ta very much

#8 - cathy - 05/16/2008 - 13:35

Well, I'm still looking for a permanent cure, but the essentials for me have been:

-sunshine
-acidophillus
-long baths (w/sea salt or apple vinegar)
-a low sugar diet (very important)
-wrap gauze around patches or fingers to prevent further damage and to discourage itching.

#9 - Ariana - 06/16/2008 - 06:56

I have a problem bc my psoriasis is on my scalp i feel it is super hard to treat bc of location. any ideas?

#10 - sarah - 07/06/2008 - 05:56

I have had great success with Blue Star Ointment. My barber just recommended using Lotrimin daily and massaging my scalp, after a few days it seems to be working.

#11 - Dave - 07/12/2008 - 21:37

I have a patch of psoriasis on my knuckles, it is extremely painful and itchy. I also have tried just about everything made specifically for psoriasis but it hasn't helped. I came up with this kind of on my own, but it has helped. First I wash my hands with charcoal soap(at most health food stores) then I dab the area with alcohol and then apply A&D Ointment and cover with a bandage for a hour or so. When I take off the bandage it feels much better and doesn't hurt or itch for several hours. I do this once in the morning and once at night. It is the one thing that has brought me the most relief from my psoriasis.

#12 - Jes - 07/16/2008 - 20:25

I've been suffering with my psoriasis for over 30 years and talk about frustration and anguish, especially while raising my children. I was at a mall one day (of all places) and tripped over some Kiosk selling "Psoriasis" products....I thought, "what the heck, one more try". I really can't put into words how my life has changed with these little kiosk products that WORK and WORK FAST. If I can help someone else not suffer for as many years as I have, then I'm blessed to share the name of these incredible products that are really natural....it's the Aim 2 Health Hand & Body TheraCream and their Double Strength TheraCream....Truly A God Send! Believe me!

#13 - Maryanne - 07/26/2008 - 07:44

I'm also looking for something that can be applied to the scalp, actually the neck area, leading up into the hair. I've put chamomile tea bags on the area, and it helps sooth the itching, but doesn't cure the problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

#14 - Cathy - 08/27/2008 - 20:14

help! ive had psoriasis for 20 yrs, during the summer months it gets better, but for some reason this summerits gotten worse. any suggestions? with fall and winter coming i dont knnow how im gonna survive. thanks

#15 - debbie - 09/03/2008 - 15:14

I have had psoriasis (body, face and scalp) for about 10 years and have spend thousands of dollars on dermatologists, creams, shampoos, pills and light therapy. Nothing has given me any long term relief. A women from my church recommended using Vaseline (pure with no fragrances added) and I am finally symptom free on my face and body. I simply wet the plaques with tap water and then rub the vaseline in several times a day. When I shower I use a loofah sponge to scrub off the flakes. After a few days I saw a big improvement and within a week I only had plaques on my knees and elbows and even they were gone after two weeks. Now I just use the vaseline when I feel as if an area is breaking out again. I can't believe all the money I wasted when Vaseline is so cheap. I tried the vaseline on my scalp but it is just way too hard to get it out. Any ideas for the scalp?

#16 - sheila - 10/02/2008 - 12:23

i've been suffering from psoriasis for 2 years now. But only recently did it get worse. What I found to be really useful is applying manuka honey on the areas covered with psoriasis every night after a cool shower, for about 20 minutes. On ares where it's more serious, I will actually leave the honey overnight (but lightly covered in gauze so that it doesn't mess up the bed). I've also changed all my detergents, shampoos and conditioners to organic soap-free and sulphate-free ones. Give these a shot.

#17 - Sylvia - 10/09/2008 - 04:11

I have had flaky itchy scalp for about 15 yrs. I also usually have less of a problem in the summer, but this year it's much worse. My entire scalp is scaly and I swear I scratch it until it weeps. My usual cures aren't touching the problem, even the spray cortisone that worked wonders last year.

#18 - sue - 10/09/2008 - 19:50

for scalps, try NIZORAL, you can get it in any pharmacy
it works wonders!

#19 - carole - 11/03/2008 - 16:27

Hydrocortisone cream 1% worked amazingly for the psoriasis on my face and skin folds (completely gone in a week). That was six months ago. Now my body isn't responding to it. Head & Shoulders got rid of the psoriasis on the scalp, which was pretty severe. I've used the shampoo for a year and it hasn't come back (yet).

#20 - Alexa - 11/07/2008 - 14:11

i have psoriasis since 8yrs..its on my chest n neck..please suggest me some good home remedy for permanent treatment of this desease

#21 - zubi - 12/01/2008 - 10:49

I have found that a product called "Husk" really works for me and my mother. I can only find it at Sallys Beauty supply. Whenever My psoriasis flare on my scalp I use Hask for 2-3 days then it is completly healed. :-D

#22 - renie - 12/01/2008 - 20:45

I have had psoriasis of scalp but TGel shampoo (original) works wonders and I have maintained it. Since I have long hair, I use Pantene conditioner after shampooing to keep hair really soft while scalp is scale free with Tgel.

#23 - Varinder Wadhwa - 12/07/2008 - 20:21

my daughter had psorasis in her hair i used argan oil
(oil from morocco)i found this information in Wikippidia
it works like magic.

#24 - rajae - 12/24/2008 - 21:52

My wife has had psoriasis for a little over 36 years. She gets it under her finger and toe nails in her hair and in her ears. Let alone the rest of her body as well. And in them 36 years she has just about tried everything. The best she had was PUVA (very strong sunbed). This was almost a complete cure but after a few weeks of stopping this it was back.
The best we do now is all over body rub with e45 cream.
I wish you all the very best in getting rid of your psorasis and i will keep coming back to see if there is anything new that may help my wife.

#25 - Rob - 12/30/2008 - 09:05

I have psoriasis on my face and scalp. I've found that Neutrogena T-Gel shampoo helps with the plaques on my scalp, but I haven't found anything that works on my face. Does anyone have any ideas...I was using Bag Balm on the plaues onmy face and it minimized them, but then clogged my pores, and cause black heads...Does anyone if Vaseline does that on the face?

#26 - Katie - 01/19/2009 - 19:18

Try cod liver oil Seven Seas 2 Capsules( Morning/Eveining) per day while applying Daivobet cream against Psorisis.Better to get the dermatolgist advise first.

#27 - Milly - 02/06/2009 - 07:04

I have psoriasis only on my scalp. I have found that a few drops of lavendar oil in a cup of olive oil, massaged into the scalp and left on for a few hours helps alot. Just make sure you rinse it thouroughly (sometimes i massage it in & then leave it in over night)

#28 - Alyssa - 02/09/2009 - 09:11

im 15 and have had psoriasis for over 2 years! its on my nees ancles and all over my legs and elbows! i really want to get rid of it and im nt rich so i cant get all the latest creams and such! please help... i miss my shorts :(

#29 - kovaest creams and such but l - 02/17/2009 - 09:37

I have had psoriasis for 6 years. Here are some of the things that have proven beneficial in controling outbreaks.

First, Elecon, a topical steroid, has done wonders for treating my spots, especially on the face.

Second, sun exposure. Daily exposure of atleast 30 minutes helps the condition regress.

Third, exercise. Daily cardio and/or strength training will improve your stress levels, confidence, and overall emotional health.

Finally, there is a strange drink that one of my co-workers said helped his mom. I tried it and sure enough, I completely cleared up. Drink once daily and let me know if you see results. In a blender, mix. One peeled orange, juice of a lemon, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, and enough juice of your choice to make it liquid enough to drink. ;-)

#30 - Dale - 02/23/2009 - 21:40

Have had psoriasis for almost 20 yrs. and have also tried every known remedy and perscription out there, the only relief I get is from an almost completely raw diet and pure coconut oil I get from a company called herbs of light, use it on my scalp and body.

#31 - monica - 03/23/2009 - 16:22

i've had psoriasis for about 15 yrs now and it covers 85% of my body. summer months it somewhat goes away because i use aquafor which is like a vaseline. it helps the pealing and itching and burning of your condition. and to remain as unstressed as possible. also try baby oil. it helps too with the itching and pealing. good luck! i hate it. people not like us don't understand what its like and so embarassing!

#32 - deena - 04/02/2009 - 15:24

I have had psoriasis for 3 years now and have found that stress really gears it up. I use daily meditation to relax, and a variety of vitamins and supplements. What seems to work best is Fish Oil. I take 3,000 mg before bed. I also take 6,000 - 8,000 mg of Garlic. The combination of the two taken at bed seem to keep it in check. It was my doctor who advised me to take my supplements before bed... apparently the immune system does its best work while the body is at rest. ;-)

#33 - Sonia - 04/03/2009 - 18:27

I was diagnosed with psoriasis when I was 10, I am now 22, so i have had it quite a while. At first the dermatologists thought I just had lice, after rigourous routines of lice removers (they stung the psoriasis areas like fire!) they finally owened up to the fact that I had psoriasis. When I was still at home my mom bought the TGel shampoo and the prescribed medical topper that goes on after it, it didnt' help, it burned and made the areas on my scalp worse and redder, though the toppical was left on overnight and rinsed off with the Tgel. I didn't use it after a few years of the painful shampooing and once I married and got out on my own, I began looking for herbal remedies that didn't burn, no risks like cancer or immune problems (psoriasis is a immune disorder, why would I want medical drugs that lower my immune system!?) The best thing that I have found for my head and ears (worst areas) was a large tea bath made from chickweed (very cheap to buy from health food stores in bulk) put it in a large cotton tea bag (also available from healthfood stores that sell loose leaf herbs) run a hot bath, let the tea bag soak as if it was a giant cup of water, like you are making a tea to drink, but instead of drinking it, you are soaking in it. Sounds strange but after I tried it (the water turns a mild green color, like green tea, it's normal) once you lay down in it, soak for a while and relax. I personally found my skin tingling in a good way, felt like little fingers massaging the painful areas, I soak for about 30-45 minutes and then bathe as usual, rinse and dry off, it's good as an every other day bath soak and for me personally, it is a relief for about two days at a time, enough time goes by that when I need it again, it's time for a soak. I also rub in cocoa-shae butter lotion after a soak, not only does it smell good, it has good vitamines in it too. Sun is ALWAYS the better remedy, just be careful of burning. It's hard, try not to scratch the areas, if you must, just rub with the flat of your fingers to aleviate the itch feeling. There is no cure of psoriasis, you just have to live with it, and the more sun on the areas like elbows and knees the better, so even though it's embarrassing, wear those shorts in summer, just lotion up and keep some aloe or shae lotion with you to reapply when you dry out, don't cover the areas up!

#34 - Christina - 04/06/2009 - 13:09

i have recently been searching the net for any help with psoriasis and i found a site wich claims this proz92s is great for help with psoriasis has anyone heard of it

#35 - pat - 04/20/2009 - 11:05

I have had psoriasis since age 5. I am now 42. I am so tired of going to the dermatologist that I really don't go any more. The medicine they gave me as a kid ended up giving me stretch marks on my legs. I think because it was some sort of steroid. Being out in the sun has always helped me the most. T gel shampoo for the scalp is best. I'm now trying to find information for something natural to try.

#36 - Kristine - 04/22/2009 - 17:52

I've suffered with my psoriasis terribly for most of my adult life. The final straw was when it started covering my hands and people could see it at work. I started taking baths three to five times a week with epsom salt and then completely covering myself with vaseline. At first, I thought it wasn't working but within six weeks, I was completely healed. Mentally andn physically it was a tremendous boost. Now I'm just working on my dark spots for the summer! Just think, all of that time at the dermatologist and spending money on steroid creams didn't compare to a home remedy. I was especially impressed that the healing process happened during the winter months which is my most difficult time of the year. Of course, no doctor will ever give us this secret.

#37 - Healed! - 04/25/2009 - 11:51

Try doing Pranayama (breathing exercises) for 30 minutes a day - Anulome Vilome in particular. Do it for 2-3 months. Trust me. It will do wonders.

#38 - B Majumder - 04/27/2009 - 16:53

hey guys, good news, i am currently in a study that is 100% effective for everyone. some company bought the rights to this medication and it will be on the market this year! keep and eye out. in the study they haven't told me yet what it's name will be but i can tell you that you take a shot once a month and then at your doctors and then they will let you take it home with you and you will give it to yourself just like people take insulin..its a miracle!!! good luck everyone!

#39 - diana - 04/28/2009 - 09:10

I've been putting adolphs meat tenderizer (the kind with papain) on my psoriasis out of desperation. after my arms cleared I've been putting it on my left thigh and not my right one to check it out my left one is clearing very well. soak and rub it in it stings a little bit; not badly though it seems to do what steriods, creams,uvlight, and all the other b.s.stuff the money grubbin doc's gave me wouldn't.Maybe I should be glad I lost my health insurance?good luck to all you sufferers I HOPE THIS CAN HELP YOU TOO!Dave-O Riverside ca

#40 - daveo - 04/28/2009 - 23:57

This worked wonders for me and it costs less:

Go to the drugstore (CVS / Walgreens etc) and look for Aveeno natural soothing bath..its in a box form with 6-8packets. There is also a generic one like that made with the stores brand name. I usually buy that coz its cheaper. It is recommended if you have a tub to soak yourself into. Fill it with hot water and drizzle 2 sachets into it. completely mix until totally dissolved. soak your whole body for 40-60mins. Rinse and dry yourself with a towel. Dont WIPE..Just damp it to dry. Use if for 2 weeks everynight, then 4x a week on the 3rd and 3x a week on the 4th week. You also need to buy a TAR SOAP. I use grandpa's tar soap..i buy it at dr.leonards.com and only costs less than $6. Use the soap every morning and let it stay in your body for 20mins. Rinse after. email me at senorit28 at yahoo if you have success.

#41 - kenzie - 05/14/2009 - 17:22

hi all! As a ps. victim for 8 yrs, scalp,lower back,legs arms and in awkward places, have experienced with quite a bit.Steroid creams of course work but you cant use too long and the lesions can fire back worse.Moisterizing creams are good sootheners and some can keep the patches stable and smooth but they wont cure.ive visited the dead sea-again it only gives a few months relief.uvb id keep out.SO WHAT DOES WORK? Renie, theres no Husk at sallys beauty store. there is Rusk Products.And Tgel didnt work 4 me.on the int theres various advertizers but im skeptical with all their testimonials, why wont they give me a contact of a successful client-id gratefully give my contact if id be cleared with s/ones product.M-folia was of no use,& by the time youd confirm that, youve missed the money back guarantee date!so i didnt try proz92, pat, as they didnt give me a contact.my next step is probably one of those books-maybe dr pagano-would he give a referral address of someone whose been cleared with no recurrences for some time through his method? (kate, r u still cleared?). GOOD LUCK!

#42 - ben - 05/15/2009 - 00:49

hi i have had ps. for nearly two years and have found a tablet called AC11 in my health food store it helped clear up my plaques definitely worth a try
good luck

#43 - rosie - 06/07/2009 - 09:56

Hi, I have tried spraying and massage organic vinegar / apple cider on my scalp before and after shampooing and it helped to soothe the itch and reduce the scales on the scalp.

#44 - JanT55 - 06/07/2009 - 21:14

M dad had it terribly for 30 years and I have had it for about 15. Also, my dad goes to the acupunture every week for his. It\'s works.
Once I went dairy and meat free, it went away completely. Make sure to keep stress levels as low as possible, so exercise works, as well as a daily muti-vitamin and fish oil.(I generally had mine behind my ears, elbow, nail, arms, legs and ear.)

#45 - tt - 06/08/2009 - 13:55

My wife has psoriasis on her feet and it kills me to see her suffer. Her feet itch almost incessantly and she uses vaseline, dermovate cream which helps but only just. Can anyone help?

#46 - bwuth - 06/15/2009 - 23:55

I think I will try the Proz92 and see if that is some relief or else the AC!! but I can't find it at my health food store?

#47 - Elaine - 06/16/2009 - 12:47

I'm 31 and developed Psoriasis when I was about 13. The only respite I got was during my first pregnancy when I had not a single flake, spot or lesion on my entire body..but BOY did it come back with a VENGANCE within about 2 months after I gave birth. I have tried just about every perscription and over the counter cream, lotion and potion out there to NO availe(GRRR) Right now however I am taking Dandelion root capsules and they seem to be working GREAT. It was recommended by an herbologist I know who has treated several people with it. I was instructed to take 500 MGs 3x/daily for one week, 2x/daily for the second week and 1x/daily from then on. Even this past winter when my skin actually burns and hurts so badly it makes me cry I didn't even itch! :-D

I also am using a lotion with vitamins A,C, E, ALoe Vera and Tea Tree Oil in it, All of which are excellent for skin disorders like psoriasis.

I have had psoriasis for 14 years, i am 32 years young. i have psoriasis patches all over my body (hate it).I have tired creams and bio meds prescribed doctors. Enbral worked for a year (completely gone) i was so happy. Sadly my immune system got used to the meds and it stopped working. I stopped using it due to the side effects and i was planning for my second child, not good for pregnancy, the DR said its up to me if i wanted to take it while pregnant but definitely have to stop while breast feeding. So i just stopped taking it completely. Come to find out a few years later it has been black listed and is very harmful. During pregnancy my psoriasis got better ( not sure why) but after having the baby my skin is just out of control. I have read all the comments and am very hopeful that some of the natural remedies will be helpful, i just had my third baby and my skin is driving me crazy.

Has anyone found relief by changing to an organic, low fat/sugar and no red meat diet, i rarely eat red meat anyway so some of the diets i read sound good but i just dont know if anything will help. Does diet and exercise really work.

Anyway, if anyone wants to email me some advice here is my email: daniel_jennifer@sbcglobal.net. God Bless you all. :-D

#50 - Jennifer - 07/07/2009 - 14:02

I'm trying a more alkaline diet, 80% for healing properties, then back to 60%. The other 20-40% is the acidity. Google it to see food choices. I think Paganos diet is pretty similar if not based on this principal.

Also, tanning bed worked great on my body, esp. during winter.

For scalp I wet hair, or out of shower, and distribute olive oil wherever needed. I then wrap a bandana to keep in the heat/moisture and to not get oil all over the place. It VERY soothing and takes off scales right away

#51 - Suz - 07/09/2009 - 17:15

I saw a link on youtube from a lady who recommended an ethnic hair treatment called DooGro and it works wonders. No kidding! Smells wonderful, helped but hasn't taken it away, but has made it feel lots better.

#52 - Kim - 07/28/2009 - 16:51

My dads had psoriasis since he was a early teen, and now he has it super bad on his knees and elbows and lower legs, near the knees. I am just beginning to get a tiny bit on my knees, only like dots of it, and i am only 13 y o. help! i dont want this to haunt me, but i also dont want to revolve my life around this stupid, ugly skin condition for years and years to come, leaving me alone and living with cats, still struggling to find a cure before it gets too out of hand! ;D Any tips BEFORE it gets bigger and noticable by my friends? (btw, i dont want to hear about some stupid bath or something that cost a heck of a lot of energy, money, and stress wasted on baths and apple cider or whatever else u guys r trying 2 do for urself.) HELPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#53 - Kim - 07/30/2009 - 21:01

I got my first outbreak of Psoriasis when I was 7 years old and have had what my doctors referred to as the worst case they had ever seen in their practice since then.
The treatment that has made my psoriasis COMPLETELY disappear is the injections such as Enbrel.
These medications are very expensive and may not be fully covered by insurance so this is my advice to you...
Look into drug research programs. That is how I was able to get the medicine that I needed without having to pay the $1500 dollar a month price tag.

My new problem is that I am now pregnant with my second child and because of that I can no longer use any sort of medications for my skin disease.
If you have any ideas for home remedies for Psoriasis I would be very appreciative!
Good Luck to all of you! I know that living with this disease sometimes seems like the cruelest thing that we could have been cursed with, but we have to keep pushing and REFUSE to settle for a life without shorts and tank tops!

Ive been suffering from psoriasis for some time now, the only thing ive found to wrk is a cream called ULTRAVATE. It wrks wonders even on my bad plaques its COMPLETLY GONE with in 2-3 days! its not over the counter but ask your physician. the generic brand is halobetasol propionate also make sure your perscibed the Oitment not the cream both wrk but the Oitment is way more afficient

I've had this terrible disease for 20 years. There is no cure... I've tried natural remedies for 17 years and now after the 18th year of not controlling it I took the road of medication. Creams, tablets, light therapy, trial drugs and more tablets. Disappears for a while then shows its ugly head again. Next option is injections...Biologics. Really happy for the people that have succeeded with the natural way. Wished it had worked for me

I am 31 years old, i've had psorasis from past 15 years...i have tried all sorts of medicines...now i am taking METHOTREXATE TABLETS....will it effect me in future?? will my married life be easy??can i have babies?? :-(

#58 - miss - 08/29/2009 - 16:06

Nadia I've been on methotrexate. With all medications as strong as these caution is vital. No known facts on effects in future. Won't affect married life and if you discover you are pregnant stop taking them immediately. My sister found her psoriasis cleared during pregnancy but came back mildly afterwards. Good luck

#59 - Penny - 08/30/2009 - 11:32

Anyone tried adding flaxseed oil to their diet? I'm going to start...we'll see how it goes.

Surprised no one else mentioned this--when I get a flare up, usually brought on by stress, I put on a huge blob of ointment (alt. from antibiotic when I have bleeding/cracks, to steriod cream, to vasoline) and cover it with plastic wrap and leave it on while I sleep. When i wake up, most of the time some gets on my sheets anyway but added bonus I am able to scratch without breaking skin. My husband has started calling me plastic girl! :-P

I also started removing tags from my clothes and wearing clothes that don't rub (elastic, etc.).

Recently got a patch on my face and it is driving me crazy! Any ideas?!

Good luck & God bless!

#62 - Shal - 09/14/2009 - 21:45

Yes, I read that the skin that's not pH balanced is more prone to skin disorders like psoriasis and eczema.

I saw an a news item on CNN about a new psoriasis cream thats pH balanced and contains palm oil, vitamin E, and tea tree oil.

But what got my attention is that it's FDA approved and approved by the National Psoriasis Foundation. I found it here...

wrinkle-free-skin-tips.com/natural-remedies-for-psoriasis.html.

I let you all know how it works.

#63 - Elaine - 09/25/2009 - 12:06

I have found taking dandilion root has helped.

#64 - Natalie - 09/26/2009 - 03:17

the pharmacist i work with suggests flaxseed oil and fish oil capsules :/ Haven't tried yet but i'm getting desperate.

#65 - abby - 09/27/2009 - 20:37

i have lived with psoriasis for over 20 years, and unfortunatley for me, it had caused the onset of arthrits. I am now 31, and have taken methotrexate, have had PUVA and even had "recepies" sent in from around the world to try and help me clear my skin. One of the best remedies i found, was massage therapy. I studied remedial health in a further attempt to understand why this skin disorder could not be cured, and i found that during the study time, we were performing/recieving 2 massages a week. Over the 6 months, my skin cleared up. I had long ago stopped taking medications, and had stopped all perscriptions, as i was having liver issues after the methotrexate, however i did mix up a blend of over 25 different oil, and started applying them, and would have fellow students use the oil in my massage.
I have since then had a child, and during my pregnancy my condition came back, so i am back to square one. I did personal study on psoriasis years ago, and it is very much stress related, and if u look back in history, you will know that massage was very much a part of life, and still is in some countries (particularly asia) where much of the stress related ilness we suffer is not as prevelant. Im not a doctor...but i think i should be! In short, MASSAGE THERAPY... If your not aware of why it woud work...massage therapy is used to gently clear the muscular systems of toxins. This is why, if u have e ver had a massage, you will notice u feel differently, u can think clearly and you might even have to go pee afterwards...some people start perspiring during thier session...and some cry, or get a runny nose. These are all different ways the body can remove toxins. I recomend u try it, and dont just have ONE massage...try it at least twice a week, and think about it becoming a part of your life. i cant begin to tell u the difference it made.

hi, i am 20 years old and i found out that i had sporiasis when i was in sixth grade. i went to the doctor and got a prescription for it. i have been using it daily ever since. it has gone away on the majority of my body. The main part that i cant get rid of is on my scalp, i have tried everything, especially tee tree oil, i used it so long and all it did was make me stink. Does any body know of anything that absolutely works? I have a two year old daughter and i'm scared that it is genetic and i dont want her to go through the same humiliation that i went through.

#67 - Amy - 10/26/2009 - 23:59

My brother & father have psoriasis and my sister and myself never did. UNTIL I had my son. 5-6 months after having him I started getting psoriasis. My sis had a girl and still doesn't have the skin problem. My son is now 10 and after many years of trying many different lotions & products I finally found one that works great. I was in the baby section at my local grocery store and I saw a baby cream Called Mom to Mom that was a vitamin A&E mix. The same brand also had a diaper rash cream with the same vitamins included. I bought both types $under 4 each. I used for a week of two and could already tell the difference. I have told 6-7 different people about the cream and they have tried it and came back to me and said THANKS. It does help a lot and you would figure it has to be good for the pregnant women since it is for Babies.
you can check it out online type in mom to mom
and connect up to CARRS SAFEWAY site

My 12 yr old son has had psoriasis since birth, none of the creams from the dermatologist seem to work! it only makes them worse, ecspecially the ones on his scalp! He is very sensative about this condition! Does anyone have any ideas on how I can help my son?

#69 - Casandra Whaley - 11/01/2009 - 10:47

I have psoriasis for the last 27 years and recently I went back to my native country India and spent a week in a Naturopathy hospital. A week stay here gave me a great relief. Basically stop eating the following and just eat quinoa/brown rice with boiled vegetables and lot of papaya. And apply rice paste (nice ground to a smooth paste) and turmeric (yellow spice) on all the affected parts daily. Wait for 45 minutes to an hour and take a shower. You will the difference.

These are no-no until psoriasis completes go away and try to stick to this even after that.
- salt
- tea and coffee
- white rice/white bread
- meats
- milk, buttermik and other dairy products
- peanuts
- prunes and plums
- wine or any other alcohol
- any kind of spices except black pepper

Drink a liter of water with lemon juice and honey in the morning. Dont eat anything after 6.30pm. The idea is to reduce your acid intake by 80% and take only alkaline food (vegs and fruits). All the above items cause acidicity.

And one more thing. Soak in epsom salt bath for 20 minutes daily. Add about 2 to 3 cups of salt in a tub of water and soak.
Good luck!

I have had psoriasis for 8 years and although I find it annoying, there are many people who are worse off than me so I try not to stress about it (the not stressing has got to help too!). I have ps mainly on my scalp, the hairline on my forehead and the back of my neck, ears and occasionally on my fingers. I take both Salmon Fish Oil and Flaxseed Oil capsules everyday and I have seen a huge improvement. At the beginning my scalp was always very red and raw and now my ps looks more like dandruff with the occasional scale here and there. I have also tried olive oil and recently Bio-Oil on my scalp and that has helped a lot with the dryness. With all of the great ideas here, I think it's mostly about trial and error - what works for one may not work for all. Good luck everyone!

#72 - anju sharma - 11/08/2009 - 02:18

I've had psoriasis for over 35 years. It's a very complicated condition with no cure in site. Before there's a cure medical professional will have to dig deep into genetics which according to my dermatologist isn't going to be happening in the near future. We know there's a lot of things that causes a flare up. Stress, heavy drinking of alcohol, bacterial infections, yeist infections, strep, smoking, fungal infections, weight gain, certain foods, cafeine...My dermatologist recommended bathing is sea salt from the black sea (works best) or regular sea salt. It will dry it up. He also said to use 1 1/2 cups of Clorox bleach to bath in twice a week. Kills the microorganisms that cause infections...He also said that a strict, low calerie diet will starve the phorasies. He actually recommended fasting. Anyone with psoriasis needs sun (15 mins), or time under a UV lamp. Tanning beds have always helped mine when I was younger. If I notice a flare up starting I will always use a round of antibiotics (tetracycline) 500 mil. for 10 days. I haven't had to use it in years. I want to say that I am very sempathetic to all of those who share this embarrassing, miserable condition with me. To give you hope my derm. said that psoriasis can go into remission and never come back. My husband has psoriasis over 70% of his body, 2 of my 4 adult daughters have sever phoriasis also. One daugter is in remission and one is starting an outbreak, but will keep in it control with tanning daily in the tanning bed. It's truely a misreable condition. Good luck to all of you.

#74 - Lidia - 11/10/2009 - 17:52

I have had ps since I was a teenager. My Dad has it and my one son. My brother also suffers from skin problems. We, as a family have tried everything, all short term relief but it always returns. A few months ago I was sent an email by my kids grandma about cinnamon and honey tea helping alot of skin troubles, so I tried it. It cleared it up as long as I kept drinking it. I stopped and it has returned with greater force. I just started drinking it again. I am going to see if it really helps. If you don't want to mix it up yourself, Bigalow makes a cinnamon tea bag, add 1 tbls honey. You can look it up on the internet, too. Hope it helps some one, hope it will help me. The suffering of it on my arms, ears, back and legs is sometimes alsomst unbareable. Good luck!

#75 - Janet - 11/11/2009 - 08:44

For psoriasis treatment boil the rice till it becomes paste and apply that hot paste over the effected part.

#76 - Babu - 11/17/2009 - 23:51

I am 43 and have psoriasis since 6th grade. I used to take vit E, zinc and lecithin. This kept it in control, but never went away. One thing that always works for me is when I go on a diet and eat more vegetables, less red meat, less dairy. I swear by the Richard Simmons diet. I know the exercise is good for you, but I don't seem to have the time. I lost 60 lbs in a year and my psoriasis went away COMPLETELY. Well, now i've gone off the diet, gained 15 lbs, and my skin is so getting worse. I've been on a diet yoyo since my teens, but every time I follow the RS diet, my skin clears up. I try to stay away from citrus and dairy. I know stress is bad, but hey....if you can tell me how to avoid stress with 4 teenagers, Please let me know. One other thing, when eating fruits and vegetables, try to eat them raw and not cooked.

#77 - Heidi - 11/21/2009 - 06:16

I have tremendous sucess using clearalysis it has healed both times I have used for long periods but the key is eating and until I visited Dr.Pagano that was the main issue,I was eating large quantities of red meat and sugary foods.Dr. John pagano I have visited and he has given me the help needed in the food area that is the key to the psorasis clearing up.He has a great cookbook and two other books.He has had tremendous sucess with his patients.I am exteremely thankful for him.

#78 - rob - 11/28/2009 - 23:24

I've had psoriasis for about 20 years now. Normally I use Clobetasol Proprionate at .05%. You do need a prescription for it, but it does work. I like the gel, but the ointment is the most effective as it will stay on the skin longer if you don't rub it off with clothing. However, it is a little expensive if you don't have insurance.

My favorite remedy is a week in Hawaii. Since I can't do that all the time I'm going to start with epsom salt baths and also look into UV therapy and see how much that costs.

Thanks for all the great ideas.

#79 - Brion - 11/29/2009 - 19:22

I am 44 and was just diagnosed with psoriasis in November. I started breakiing out with these scaley bumps back in august, it took that long to see a dermatologist and he just said exzema and gave me a cream that did nothing. Went back to my primary and he said psoriasis. I cried from relief not knowing what it was thought I had parosites living on me. Now i cry knowing this will be a life long batlle. No one else in my family has this. Reading what everyone has written scarem and inspires me at the same time.

#80 - Linda - 12/06/2009 - 09:59

ive had recurring psoriasis on my scalp for a couple years now. it's recently moved to my ears hairline and inside my belly button (very strange)

a friend with eczema gave me Halobetasol Propionate and that took it away for a few weeks...but now im out. im going to try the Argan oil...seems like a good route..no topical solutions worked for me..only made my scalp redder and more painful. no shampoos worked either..and being a hair stylist ive tried a ton of them. im also vegetarian but must start to take fish oil or even consider eating fish again to get rid of this.

#81 - dz - 12/09/2009 - 00:17

i have guttate psorias,its on my butt,legs,arms,scalp and head.can someone give me any ideas anything.theres times i feel like im losing my mind over this,please help me

#82 - darlene - 12/09/2009 - 07:08

I have had psoriasis on both of my chins(legs) since 1969, I have reacently had a relief from both of them and seems to be going away, I sort of made my own mixture (50-50) from two product i purchased at wal mart. One is MG217 (medicated tar ointment) and the other is Dermarest (psoriasis medicated moisturizer). Believe me it has helped

#83 - Ray - 12/11/2009 - 18:29

Homoeopathy is good provided it is given by an experienced doctor. It has to be monitored regularly and doses changed as per the condition. The good of it that it has no side effects and if adds to silent healing why not?.
Also allopathy can be continued.
Take plenty of flax seeds and say no to alcohol, red meat amd fried/oily foods.

Has anyone tried Baking Soda therapy? I read that psoriasis is really a fungus and drinking 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda with 4oz water 4x/day will clear it up! It is also shown to prevent cancer, colds, flu, etc. It supposedly raises the pH in the body slightly which creates an environment non-conducive to fungal/bacterial growth. Please respond if you have had any success with this treatment. email me if you have imperical evidence that this works. (gkainc@gmail.com). Thanks.

#85 - Geoff - 12/15/2009 - 13:29

I have psoriasis for over 30yrs and really empathise with anyone that suffers from it. I keep my scalp clear by using olive oil on my scalp and find this to be effective in taking away the scales. I put the olive oil on dry hair and leave overnight, it is messy so you would need to use a towel and a cap. In the morning put the shampoo directly on to the hair without water and rinse (much easier to remove). Shampoo another few times and condition well.

I wash with Aqueous cream and find this helps as soap tends to dry out my skin.

#86 - Joe - 12/16/2009 - 17:42

one of the best remedy for psoriasis is mixture of equal volume of Ghee, Sesame oil and castor oil. Apply two times a day and should not have coffee during the treatment period has shown a good results.

#87 - Rajani - 01/11/2010 - 06:21

Wow! So many treatments and expeirments! Everyone keep it up and we are bound to find something that works. I read the comment on trying baking soda.............has anyone tried that? I don't think that psoriasis is a fungus Geoff; unless they have discovered differently here recently, and if they have GREAT! At least they are working on the problem and hopefully a solution is soon to follow. I found that prednisone is a good way to calm down psoriasis and somewhat clear it up, and is a inexpensive script, however you can't stay on it for a long period of time. What I found to help with my scalp was, a 1.0% coal tar shampoo. You can get it at CVS, Wal-Mart, or Walgreens. Look on the back of the box or bottle for this information. You can also use it as a liquid soap. Lather up hair and entire body and wait for about 5 mins and rinse off. It may sound crazy, but it helps. Also, all the talk about diets, cutting back sugar in-take, exercise, eating well, all this is true. This is what really helps me. I am blessed with great insurance and could use really any doctor I choose, however I hate going to the doctor's office. So I diet, exercise, cut out sugar in-take to avoid it. Good luck everyone and God bless.

#88 - Rod - 01/13/2010 - 12:08

Hello Everyone. I came across this website researching psoriasis remedies for my boyfriend. I want to bring some of the treatments talked about here to him but I don't want to offend him. He is sensitive about it and frusturated. Coming from others suffering, I'm open to suggestions on how to bring this up. Please and Thanks :-)

#89 - Christine - 01/13/2010 - 13:27

I stumbled on a remedy last week, Banana peel (been around for a while) . I tried it and it does help but for me it only went so far. You rub the peel on the lesion once or twice a day. It kept things in check for me. Last night I put a steroid on some of the persistent ares and I have seen some good results, so maybe a combination will be a plan.
I'm 53 yrs old and my ps started when I was 18 with a strange viral infection. A doctor diagnosed riders syndrome and that stuck for a few years but it wasn't riders syndrome.
Years past and my diagnosis became psoriasis.
My problems were for the most part in my finger and toe nails( these days its attacking my skin) . My nails were gross to look at. I felt like the lobster man or some oddity. I constantly had to and still have to think about hiding them from strangers.
I keep my nails trimmed as close as possible and I use sand paper of different grades to improve there appearance. In the last decade my vision has become so that I can not see up close without reading glasses. Out of sight out of mind. That has helped me feel less stress about how other see me.
My heart goes out to the young people with ps. When I was young I am told I was a very attractive man but my ps. made me feel ugly, shy, and ashamed of the curse that was put on me. I was happy to stay alone, I became a loner.
To make a long story short I met a woman at 23 who I married but she was evil. Then I met another woman at 41 who wasn't evil. Life goes on just like those who don't have psoriasis.
You cope, there are really worse problems to have.
The older folks know this, to the young out there, hang in there. I'm sorry you have this, there is no cure right now. There may never be. Find what works for you and live your life like you didn't have this affliction.
God bless.

#90 - Tim - 01/17/2010 - 18:38

Thank you so much for all the amazing information...wow! Yeah, Epsom salt baths are so relaxing and seem to work well at soothing my P. I'm new to P, it hasn't been even a year yet, but you just keep on keepin' on. I have also found the Cod liver Oil has worked well too, it's not too tasty but that is ok. UVB light therapy really works well, but what about long term effects?

#91 - Tammy - 01/17/2010 - 20:43

Ive taken notes on what I think are great "natural" remedies of psoriasis. I will say that Ive only had flare ups of psoriasis twice in my life. I am 25 years old. I had perfect skin most my life, and Im actually a model, used to do it full time as a profession, in the US and Europe. Im a very sensitive and fragile person, I feel emotions to most extremes. About 3 and a half years ago, I was more then stressed out and over worked, and I developed psoriasis, but it spread and grew very fast...and (since it was my first time ever experiencing it) of course it freaked me out. My doctor put my on topical steroids which of course got rid of it but just ate up my money. So i spoke to many different people, ended up going to a special clinic in Mexico. One of my dear friends, boyfriends, volunteers there once a month. Its a clinic thats full of scientists from around the world, who are full charity cases, they take on EXTREME cancer patients (who literally have 6 months left to live) and they place them on the most extreme homeopathic remedies, take out all the metal in their bodies (which they conclude are a huge part of their cancer) ... put them on herbal remedies, herbal tea diets, etc. They have cured SO MANY of these people, and Ive witnessed it...its unbelievable really. Anyways, one of the professors. His name is Kirk White... hes one of the most brilliant people Ive ever known. He sat and spoke with me for a while, and simply told me all I needed to do was go on a cleanse.

Psoriasis is best resolved when you reset your natural balance of your innerself/body. Everything functions and forms from the inside out correct? YES! Therefore if we can get to the ROOT of the problem, we can somehow eliminate it.

Im sure some of you have head of the master cleanse... I went on it for 14 days. And I did a 2 month follow up, making sure to take probiotic capsule pills (not any other form, they will be eliminated before hitting your digestive system, from your digestive enzymes and acids.)

THen keeping up with a healthy organic multivitamin, and making sure to get SUNLIGHT, depending on where you live, get at least a half hour of REAL sun, or go tanning, it helps you in numerous ways.

Try to eat as organic and natural as you can. Lean meats (as little red meat as possible) and the most purest forms of veggies.

I used a site thats from a book which shows the natural, organic, and pure form of the great ways the master cleanse can help. (and trust me, I was covered in about 75% psoriasis...itchy, bleeding skin, covering my torso and back, arms, legs, parts of my face, ear, etc. HORRIBLE.)

This is the only think I can swear by, and I am so thankful for, because it truely cured me.

I cant seem to copy and paste on to this. But if any of you would like this info please please email me at melissamcnelis@yahoo.com

I will gladly send you the link and help answer any questions, etc. I know how absolutely horrible it is to have psoriasis, WHen I had it, it was an absolute nightmare and I thought Id never get rid of it. The day I saw myself with normal skin again I just cried.

#92 - Melissa - 01/21/2010 - 00:06

My 5 yrs. old son was diagnosed with psoriasis. he's got it on his scalp , underarm, groin and patches on his back. creams and shampoo that was prescribed to him works well at the moment. but i'm looking at herbal treatment. coz i'm aware that with medicines and topical creams it only works for so long. can anybody suggest herbal treatment that's o.k to use with children?

#93 - Janey - 02/02/2010 - 15:08

wow lots of info. here. had ps for about 30 years. im now 34 and sick of itching. seems like a great place to get some answers. i believe cleaning your body out from the inside out is what works. the problem is for 1 all we as ps sufferers can eat to be ps free are lots of veggies. fruits. a little bit of chicken and some fish but not shrimp crab lobster etc.. and even with the veggies we are limited to as we are not to have tomatos onions and more. who has the willpower to not have the occasinal pizza or beer or etc.. you get the point. as well take 7 half hour baths a week and pop a lot of healthy supplements. im gonna try my best. keep you guys posted. great forum. my email bradshad23@cox.net would love to hear from other people who think likewise. also im going to try the clorox bleach thing. c ya
