I wrote briefly about psoriasis the other day and a friend asked me if there is a cure for psoriasis? Well….if you ask those companies who sell some miracle cure, they may make you believe there is. But I doubt there is a cure for psoriasis because I have done some googling and according to this site, DermWeb.com, they say this :
Is there a Cure for Psoriasis?
THERE IS NO PRESENT CURE FOR PSORIASIS, but there are a number of drugs and treatments that can relieve and control psoriasis, often for long periods of time. Psoriasis on its own can come and go often with long periods of remission. In most cases, however, psoriasis is persistent. It can come and go without any obvious reason. Psoriasis does not necessarily become worse with age. Psoriasis can occur at any age from infancy to the elderly. Psoriasis will often remain in small localized areas and never spread.
They have pretty good information on psoriasis and how to control it. They also tell you how to watch your diet to avoid a flare up.
Take a look and I hope it is helpful.
Don’t try home remedies!! They could do worse. Call or go to a dermatologist.
there is a new shot called embrel, but i don’t know if there is an age limit on it. check with your pediatrician
I had this problem for years and used over the counter stuff. Finally, I saw a dermatologist and he gave me a prescription cream, it went away - and hasn’t been back. Good luck.
Here is a site. Hope it helps you. It says….Is there a cure? Not at the moment, much research is being done but unfortunately there is no cure at the present time but the future looks hopeful.
There is no cure; however, there are many treatments. You can find a nice diagram here:
My younger cousin actually suffered from psoriasis often as a child, and was prescribed a topical ointment; of course, everyone is different when it comes to medications.
Wish you all the best, and hope I was of some help.
Hepar Sulph 30 th potency ,orally one to two drops once daily for two months, and report for further advice to any homeopath.other optional medicine can be advised if detailed history sheet is being sent by e-mail.
i hear it is hereditary
Psoriasis has no cure, but can be controlled. I’ve had it for years and I still have it.
I take it that you live in the U.S. and I recommend you to contact the NPF (National Psoriasis Foundation).
Their web site is:.

One thing: Do not try any “home remedies”. They don’t work and can do a lot of damage.
