United by Resilience, Fueled by Knowledge: Empowering Each Other in the Psoriasis Community

Psoriasis is a skin condition that creates an itchy, scaly rash on various parts of the body like knees, elbows, trunk, and scalp. It is a chronic (ongoing) condition. It may lead to uncomfortability, sleep disruption, and difficulty in focusing. It is an autoimmune disease and a persistent skin disorder that can flare up at any time. The problem tends to flare up for a few weeks or months, then subsides for some time. Infections, burns, and certain drugs are common triggers in persons who have a susceptibility to be suffering from psoriasis.

Signs of psoriasis-

Plaques are one of the symptoms of psoriasis. In addition to skin plaques or a rash, you may have the following psoriasis symptoms:

1. A spotty rash that varies greatly in appearance from individual to individual, varying from dandruff-like scaling areas to massive eruptions covering most of the body.

2. Colourful rashes that seem to be purple with a greyish scale on brown or black skin. 

3. Minor spots (common in youngsters)

4. Skin that is dry and damaged and may bleed

5. Itching, burning, or pain

6. Cyclic rashes that appear and then disappear for a few weeks or months

Reasons for Psoriasis-

Psoriasis is assumed to be an immune system disorder that causes skin cells to develop at an abnormally rapid rate. This fast turnover of cells leads to dry, scaly patches is the most common kind of psoriasis, known as plaque psoriasis. The precise cause of psoriasis is unknown. Psoriasis can affect almost everyone. A third of all cases begin at a young age. The following are common psoriasis causes:

1. Family Problem- The disease runs in family. Even if you have one parent who has psoriasis, it raises your chances of developing the condition. Having two parents who have psoriasis raises your risk even further.

2. Smoking. Tobacco use not only raises the danger of psoriasis, but it may also worsen the condition.

3. Emotional tension.

4. A bacterial infection (streptococcal infection).

5. Skin damage such as a wound, bruise, or surgery.

6. Lithium and beta-blockers are two examples of drugs.

7. Weather-related changes in body temperature.

Psoriasis Treatment-

Psoriasis cure is widely thought to be unavailable. This, however, is not the case. Several therapy methods are available for reducing psoriasis symptoms. Treatments try to slow the growth of skin cells and eliminate scales. Amongst them, homeopathy is significantly effective in the treatment of psoriasis, and unlike allopathic drugs, these homeopathic medicines are 100% natural and do not include any chemical ingredients at all. Psoriasis treatment by homeopathy aims to address the underlying source of unregulated cell division and inflammation. Once these two issues are resolved, your symptoms will go away. To get positive results in homeopathic treatment, both the patient and the practitioner must be patient.
