Signs and Symptoms of Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic, non-contagious disease that is characterized by itchiness and a skin rash. The rash is usually red and slightly raised, with silvery, scaling patches on top of the red regions. The infection usually affects the elbows, knees, scalp, fingernails, and trunk of the body. Psoriasis can also lead to arthritis-like joint pain.

Note that it is sometimes difficult to differentiate between psoriasis and eczema, since both often exhibit similar symptoms. A common way to differentiate between the two diseases is by seeing which area of the body is affected. Psoriasis often affects the back of the elbows and front of the knees (extensor surfaces), while eczema usually affects the inside of the arms and the back of the knees (flexor surfaces). Eczema is also more often found on the ankles than psoriasis.

Causes of Psoriasis

The underlying cause of psoriasis is unknown. However, what we do know is that the symptoms of psoriasis occur when skin cells begin to mature more rapidly than normal. As a result, these poorly developed cells cannot shed quickly, resulting in a build-up of skin which leads to the thick and scaly rash.

Suspected triggers of psoriasis include:

  • Family history of psoriasis.
  • Stress or anxiety.
  • Reaction to certain drugs.
  • Certain infections such as strep throat.
  • Drinking alcohol.

A few studies have also found that decreasing the consumption of fatty meats (such as pork) helps to reduce the appearance of scaly psoriasis patches. Reducing caffeine consumption was found to have a similar effect.

Home Remedies and Natural Treatments for Psoriasis

Baking Soda

Baking soda is an effective way to treat the itchiness associated with psoriasis. Simply dissolve 1/3 cup of baking soda into 1 gallon of water, and then soak a washcloth into this mixture. Wring out the cloth and then apply it directly to the affected skin. Repeat this several times.

Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil has been found to be an excellent natural treatment for relieving psoriasis. A common recommendation is to take 2 tablespoons of virgin coconut oil each day. It can either be consumed directly from the spoon, or you can mix it into a fruit smoothie, sautee vegetables with it, or use it as a replacement for butter when eating pancakes. Another option is to apply coconut oil topically onto the affected area 3 times per day.

Petroleum Jelly

One of the best ways to control the build-up of skin that occurs due to psoriasis is to make sure skin is well moisturized. Petroleum jelly is an effective moisturizer, so simply apply a small amount to the affected areas each day especially after taking a bath or a shower. It is also important to apply moisturizer within a few minutes after a bath or shower.

Sunlight

Many doctors prescribe artificial ultraviolet light treatments to patients suffering from psoriasis. A less expensive alternative is to simply get more sunlight! Start with 5-10 minutes of sun exposure, preferably during non-peak hours. Gradually increase exposure time, but avoid overexposure and use sun protection for unaffected areas.

Exposure to the sun can enhance the production of Vitamin D, which has been found to be effective at treating psoriasis.

Chamomile Tea Bath

Chamomile is believed to help reduce the inflammation associated with psoriasis, while also potentially helping to inhibit further growth of psoriasis plaque. So here’s a great natural remedy for psoriasis that is also calming and relaxing at the same time! Simply take 4 or 5 chamomile tea bags, and steep them in 4 cups of boiling water for about 15 minutes. Let the tea cool slightly, and then mix the entire tea into a bathtub full of warm water. Swish it all around so that it is spread evenly throughout the bathtub, and then take a soak in the tub for around 20 minutes.

    I have had psorasis now for 4 years. When I first got it, it covered my entire
    body. I was hospitalized for 8 days to get it under control. For a while it
    was minor. Recently it is getting worse
    on the back of my arms and in the groin area. I am going to try the
    apple cider vinager baths and taking vitamin B3. You all are not alone
    in your pain.

    I want to share how my husband’s psoriasis disappeared for 4 years. It was very simple. His psoriasis was all over the trunk of his body, his legs and elbows. He had it for years. A health food store lady told us what to do and it worked. We noticed it was disappearing in less than a month and it was ALL gone in less than 3 months and had not returned for four years. We have told others about this and the do not want to be without these two products that you can find in a health food store or buy online. We are not in anyway connected with these products. This is all you take.

    Twin Labs EMULSIFIED Cod Liver Oil (Mint taste and make sure it is Emulsified) ~ Take 1 oz 3 x a day.

    Dr. Souza’s Chlorophyll ~ Take 1 oz 3 x a day

    THAT’s IT!!! He started noticing changes almost right away – little by little, it disappeared. We are both so excited – no more flaking, bleeding or itching.

    After it is gone, continue taking the cod liver oil at 1 oz. a day. Take a small bottle of chlorophyll and drink it once a month and try to do it in a day or two.

    P.S. – Just recently there have been small outbreaks, so we don’t know if he is immune to this treatment. We are just happy that it was gone for those 4 years.

    Hi everyone! I’ve had Psoriasis for almost twenty years and believe it started after finding out my wife cheated and my stress levels went through the roof. So did my eating and I ballooned up to a lean 315lbs!
    Keep in mind I still had Psoriasis on my elbows, knees, knuckles and a few decent size spots on my legs. After the surgery I could only eat a medicine cup full of scrambled eggs (yes, like a Nyquil cup) and a medicine cup of carnation instant breakfast. That was the only thing I could eat for the first month after surgery for every meal and the funny thing was is that I was stuffed! I was told under no circumstances to eat any kind of bread product or my new stomach (golf ball size) could explode. After 4 weeks my psoriasis was completely gone and remained gone for the next 8 years. Yes, I was able to eat more things and my meals became more normal but no bread products. I guess it was because of the yeast, gluten, and enzymes the infest every bread product imaginable. Then the day came when I thought I’d take a little chance and try a piece of bread. Dear God it was like tasting . . . . I can’t even describe how good it tasted. I noticed about a week later a small patch of psoriasis and thought what the frick??!! Now it’s back on my elbows knees and knuckles and legs and I’m absolutely 100% guaranteed it has everything to do with bread or the ingredients in the bread. Good ole gluten screwed me again!! I’m stopping anything that may have flour in the ingredients and I’m betting that within 1 month from today, Sept. 22, my psoriasis will be completely gone. Do you have the courage to do it? Of course you do!! If I can do it, anyone can do it easily. No more wearing long sleeve shirts to the beach or jeans to mow the lawn. I make light of it only to show that it is so very easy, just cut out anything that has any flour or gluten in it and your psoriasis will be gone. I did lose a total of 120lbs from surgery and feel great and have kept that off no problemo. Good luck!!!

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I use coconut oil on a regular basis and it has REALLY made a difference in my psoriasis and eczema. Also, I completely cut out milk and that permanently decreased my psoriasis by about 40 or 50% very quickly. Lastly, this may sound strange but if I use a blow dryer on different parts of my body and on my scalp within 3-5 minutes of getting out of the shower, it significantly reduces my psoriasis as well. I hope that helps!! I still have psoriasis and use steroid creams, but really the 3 things I mentioned above have made the most difference and improved my symptoms by about 75%! 🙂

    Hey everyone, so I’ve been suffering with Psoriasis for 2 years now! I’ve been looking for something to clear it up for quite some time now with not a complete result but I’ve found something that works well! Baking Soda! Its funny because if you pay close attention to all of the comments on here there’s one thread, the one thing that seems to work, antifungals! Well after doing research I found out that some people believe that psoriasis is a sign of systemic candida infection! Now I’m not no Dr nor can I offer sound media advice but for me, I use one teaspoon of Baking Soda in glass of water completely dissolved! I also rub it into the patches and use a pediegg to get the dead skin off… the ocean and 5000 units of vitamin d3! Google up using baking soda for candida before using this treatment because it can cause issues and u need to check your PH balance during!!!

    Hi all, i just wanted to share my experiences with psoriasis as i hope that it can help others. I statred getting it in high school and am currently 29. Up until the last year and a half i had it pretty bad and had tried all the medicines, ointments, lotions, enbrel self injection, and even quit smoking in hopes that would help. It didnt in the slightest. I could always get it to kind of clear up for a bit if i religiously applied clobex or clobatasol but it always came back sooner or later. Ok, now for the good news! Bear with me because i dont know which part actually made the difference or whether it was a combo of all but my p is almost all gone. Like a miracle because i thought i would have to live with it my entire life. I started eating six to seve small meals a day along with a rigorous workout program. I lost probably 30 pounds and drink 95 percent water. I cut alot of the drinking i used to do out and get good sleep as much as possible. I dont use anything on my body or ingest any food that has chemicals or is highly processed. I even use a soap called Grandma’s lye soap, all natural stuff. The stress and worry in my life has seemed to go down quite a bit and that may play another big part in psoriasis outbreaks. Now when i see a patch or two surfacing it usually coincides with a lack of proper diet or a little too much alcohol consumption, overall just not treating my body properly. Once i recognize it and adjust the patches go away on their own. Hope this helps. God bless!

    I have had psorasis now for about 14 years now. It started real small in my knees and then my elbows and now its all over my body. Its very depressing to see your body looking that way, but you need to be strong and positive.The one medication that works for me that controls now is talconex ointment but it is costly if you do not have insurance. It also has reach my hair line in my scalp and use talconex scalp ointment which also works. Now that it is summer time I have been going to the beach going in the ocean water and getting a lot of sun and have noticed my skin looking so much better. I strongly recommend ocean water and sun light in help to improve your psorasis it works so those looking for a remedy at no cost this is the way to go. Good luck to everyone and stay postive.

    Hi Everybody, Thanks for all the tips. I’ve had it for about 6 years now and it’s getting worse. it started out as a small rash on my one leg and has grown to the size of about 1 sheet of toilet paper. This has happened over a period of 2 years. It has now popped up all over my body and it itches like hell. I’ve tried prescription druggs which works , but not for long. I’m gonna try the coconut oil and as i’ve heard petroleum jelly does also work. I also read somewhere that bathing in apple cider vinegar might also help. Are there anybody out there that can confirm that?

    Will keep you posted with my results

    I have had it since the age of eight and am only 11 but the only things that helped besides certain prescriptions is chlorine in water such as at water parks, lots of sunlight, and for soaking areas with Epsom salt dissolved in warm water. P.S. one of the only medicines that have helped are clobetasol foam on scalp and cream on legs
    Hope this helps out others with Psoriasis.

    I had some sort of psoriasis type rash on my face for months and nothing worked. Then on vacation in FL I went to the beach a lot and noticed that it was clearing up. I came home and it all came back. A month later I went back to the beach (FL Atlantic side) and got a bottle of water out of the ocean. I rubbed the water on my face twice a day or more for several weeks. It went away completely and has never come back. What a simple, easy remedy after trying so many, many creams and even internal remedies!

    Thank you for the tips, y’all. I’ve had a scalp psoriasis since I was 12 (I’m now 29) and it’s starting to get worse and spread to other body parts. Especially now in the middle of winter when there’s no sign of Sun here in Northern Finland. I’m now going to try coconut oil, baking soda, flaxseed capsules and see how it goes. So thanks again for the tips!

    I also want to say something else. It makes me sad to see there are some people who first tell their story how they found a cure, and then ask others to e-mail them to learn how they can order it. If someone really got cured and found out a great remedy, I’m sure they would share their “secrets” to others who suffer, and not try to make money out of it. It’s disgusting when some people are using our horrible situation to earn money.

    I had a really bad outbreak of psoriasis my body was pretty much covered with big patches. I have been fighting this for many years. I also have spent years using prescriptions and never have worked for me. My son-in-law gave me a bar of grandmas lye soap to try. I used it for one month and the psoriasis was cleared up. I quit using it for two weeks and my psoriasis came back. So I ordered some more grandmas lye soap and continued to use it everyday and I will never stop using it because it really does work. So if you are one of these people and you can’t find anything that will clear your psoriasis just try the soap and you will see that it does work.

    You can purchase all organic, unrefined virgin coconut oil at TropialTraditions.com. I have used it on my skin for the last 2 years and my skin feels amazing. I’ve never had any skin ailments but my son does. He thinks I’m crazy when I mention coconut oil to cure nearly everything, but it is naturally antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral. It can be taken internally and has a 2yr shelf life. I also cook with it since it’s healthy for you as opposed to Canola which is from the rape seed, a known toxin.

    I have been using baking soda every time I shower on my scalp. I put a small pile in my hand and add a bit of water to it till its like pancake batter. I dont use shampoos if I really dont have to, I find they make it worse. After I get out of the shower I rub tea tree oil onto my scalp, it really feels good and I find I can lessen the outbreaks as well as the frequency of them. Also I bought oil of wild oregano from a health food store and I have been taking 4 drops everyday in a little shot of orange juice. It helps boost ur immune system and I find lessens the frequency of my outbreaks as well. After reading about the benefits of coconut oil I am going to try that too!

    pauline, I’m using coconut oil for my stretch marks and it seems to be helping so far. I wanted to let you know that one thing to remember is you do NOT want the refined oil because it goes through so much heat and chemical treatment to be refined that it loses a lot of its natural healing components. Look for organic virgin coconut oil which is cold pressed and unrefined. You can find it at herbal food stores. Good luck!!

    I have developed(as my doctor diagnosed, this week) psoriasis over the last couple of months, being mainly on the soles of my feet.My doctor also said it was probably a change of temperature that caused this.
    It has got to a stage that my skin is cracking over a wide area of my feet, including in between my toes, and the soreness is too much to walk at times. I was subscibed a mild steroid,hydrovate.Although I have only been using this ointment for 5 days, twice a day,I am still suffering with the soreness quite badly.
    Can someone, anyone, tell me how I can get hold of this refined coconut oil.

    I’ve been taking Vitamin D3 supplements and Flaxseed capsules and my psoriasis cleared up!! I usually take 2,000-4,000 IU’s a day of Vit.D3. I noticed when I was in Florida in the sun all the time, my psoriasis cleared up, and you get D3 from the sun. So if you don’t get enough sun, try D3 supplements!!

    @ Saira.khaliq, Try applying organic Coconut Oil for overnight on affected areas. Its anti-oxidant activity helps with rapid maturation of the skin cells which is considered one of the main causes of Psoriasis. Also taking Coconut Oil internally and eating Vitamin D supplements work too. I hope it helps… Good luck!

    I would like to share with all of you something that has worked for me to get rid of my psoriasis completely. I got my first sign of psoriasis about 13 years ago on my hands. It was not bad at first but in the winter of 1997 my hands looked like that of an unhealthy 90 year old man and I was only 26 then!

    In 1999 I had some major challenges in my life and it came back full force in my palms, on my knees, under my feet and on my elbows. I tried everything natural and unnatural to get rid of the psoriasis, but it would not go away and the stress I was under wasn’t going anywhere anytime soon. During the day I visited every dermatologist I knew and at nights I was on the internet searching for the answer.

    Finally in 2009 after 10 years of research and paying thousands of dollars to doctors, I found the combination of couple of ointments that were suggested to me by doctors, that worked and since then I have been living psoriasis free! My skin has never been smoother since then and I am not ashamed to wear short sleeves or short pants and even go to the beach and enjoy the sun and the sand like everyone else.

    Now that I have tested this on me, for almost 2 years, and with confidence I know it will work for you too and you too can live psoriasis free, I am willing to share this ointment mixture with you.

    For further details on how to order this ointment, do not hesitate to email me at hamlet.sca@gmail.com

    I will reply ASAP to your request and explain you exactly how it works and how you can order it.

    I guarantee you will see result in less than three weeks.

    I have had inverse psoriasis on my neck and starting under my arms. I have tried about everything, the tanning bed doesn’t appear to work on inverse psoriasis so through trial and error I have used the following and the psoriasis is clearing up. First for the severe redness and inflamation go to your local pharmacy and buy Domeboro astrigent solution. You can mix this to whatever strength you want and use it as a compress. You can keep the solution for several days and keep reusing it. I then use a good moisturizing cream that is absorbed into the skin. Next for the itching I used Caladryl Clear lotion. Then I top off with a “chafing relief powder-gel” made by Monistat and can be purchased in the feminine aisle. This is keeps the skin from chafing. I also used some anti-fungal spray in case the moisture from the lotion caused a fungal infection. you may need to try a mixture of these and may need to use them in a different order. The caladryl will dry out the psoriasis but not to the point of being plaque psoriasis. Hope this helps someone else.

    I have been having Psoriasis for the last 2 years and despite numerous visits to the doctors and using various skin fungi creams, the ocndition persisted.The simplest way for it to subside is to AVOID totally all milk (including evaporated milk altogether. This meant a big NO NO to all cheese,yoghurts,ice creams,cakes,creamy gravies, biscuits,salad creams/dressings even mashed potatoes mixed with milk products. The psoriasis will flair up exactly 4 hours after ingesting any of the above.I will try the coconut oil treatment

    I found this site back in January of this year. I was researching Psoriasis. I had an outbreak that had lasted more than 8 months and was desperate to clear it up. I have spent years using prescriptions and finally reached the point where they stopped working. One of the comments mentioned coconut oil so I did further research and decided to try it. I purchased refined coconut oil and put it to the test. For the first month, I ingested 2 TBS per day (in hot cocoa or tea) and applied it topically as a moisturizer. To make the test fair, I stopped using a tanning bed and all the topicals I had accumulated. Once my skin started clearing (arms, legs, hands, scalp, stomach and back), I stopped ingesting it and just continued using as a topical. Not only am I clear enough to show my legs and elbows, but my nails have also cleared. If I have a flair up, I do go back to ingesting coconut oil until it clears up. I have stuck with it for 3 months and I am very pleased with the results. If you do a search on ‘benefits of coconut oil’ you will see that it has many benefits. I did learn that it needs to be refined coconut oil because that is the one that has the ‘anti-fungal’ properties. I worked for me. This site and the participants that took the time to share their experiences made such a difference for me and I am grateful. It inspired me to do further research because I also have a slight case of rosacea on my face and read on this site that Apple Cider Vinegar was good for that. The recommendation was 2 tbsp daily and then using it as a topical. It tasted horrible and it burned my skin. Fortunately, there is an ACV supplement and it also has multiple benefits. After 3 months of trying that, I have found that it also provided wonderful results for me. Not leaving anything to chance, I did further research and discovered that Oregano Oil is also a great supplement. I have taken that for 3 months too. My overall results are amazing: my skin have improved at least 90%. I encourage people to research alternative options, because they do exist.
    BTW (ladies), coconut oil is wonderful for the skin. It can actually help diminish age lines; it does offer UV protection and helps your skin retain moisture.
