Suggest Remedy For Psoriasis

I have Psoriasis on the bottom of my feetand starting on the innerside of my hands. I have got very thick dead skin around the affected areas. I have consulted a local doctor, who advised me to apply halotop during the day time and cosalic ointment (Salve Pharm) before sleep. But it's increasing day by day. Please advise.

Dermatologist,  's  Response

Hello,

I can understand your concern for psoriasis. I can get from your query that you have planter psoriasis as diagnosed by the treating doctor.
After analyzing your query I can make out that you have planter psoriasis. It is quite difficult to treat this type of psoriatic plaques on foot area because of thick skin.

Your treating doctor has provided good treatment with steroid cream and emollient creams along with keratolytic creams which you can continue.

I additionally suggest to add and antihistamine to reduce the itching. You can also do warm compression with warm water and soaking your feet in the same.

You can meet your treating dermatologist for further best guidance.

Take care, all the best.
