Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and understand your concern. You are most probably having arthritis. As you are also having psoriasis so it may be possible that you are having psoriatic arthritis. Diacerine and glucosamine may be helpful in psoriatic arthritis. Analgesic such as ibuprofen is helpful in pain relief. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
