Hi, Well I am 35yrs old, and for as long as i can remember i have had Psoriasis.. My dad has it quite bad, so it is just something that we grew up with.
I have tried the Tar treatments, although not for a few years.. I don't have the Psoriasis that is thick and scaly, mine is flat and small, but loads of spots of it, Most are around 10p size, but they are everywhere..
I guess im lucky in that they don't particularly itch, The spots never crack or bleed, they are just there.. And to be honest im not that bothered by them, however, i am beginning to think that i should start to be more aware of the treatments..
My GP last year prescribed me Dovobet, and i have been using that off and on since then, maybe once a week or fortnight, i know i should be more committed.. However i have been reading on the net that i shouldn't use this treatment as i am so covered in spots, its covering a lot more than 30% of my body, so i am wondering what type of treatment i should start to use?..
I have the double base moisturisers & use them...
I have been looking on the net for what feels like years, and i start to read one thing and then somewhere else tells me the opposite,
I also have bath treatments, but im trying to work out which is best, dead sea salt - surely this will dry the skin, and Oilatum - to lock in moisture...
How can 2 things which are opposite be both recommended??
Confused Regards
