Suggest Remedies For Itchy Palms And Swelling In The Thighs

Posted on Wed, 29 Nov 2017

Question: a few days ago I had a hard time climbing stairs (never happened before) most of my joints (knees/wrist/shoulder) hurt. It subsided by morning but now I had itchy palms, swollen right thigh AND I have "bumps" on a few places on my head. I took a couple of benadryl (HCE25mg) assuming it was some kind of allergy. I did have OPEN HEART (valve replacement) 10 months ago.I also have had chronic psoriasis for several years. Have not restarted light treatments since heart surgery.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Involvement of joints can happen in psoriasis.
If possible upload a photograph of the bumps you have developed on skin.
This will help me in giving a closer diagnosis and better way of management.
Waiting for your response.
