General & Family Physician,  's  Response
psoriasis is an autoimune skin disease. it will not be cured with the cream she is using. it need heavy agents like methotrexate, cyclosporines etc depends on case to case. so meet a good dermat for proper therapy. but remember never to take oral or systemic steroids in psoriasis and i suggest not to use that clobetasol cream anymore
