Psoriasis treatment
I'd psoriasis/allergy since childhood. For last one year I'm going through homeopathic treatment. I'm feeling better but moment I stop having medicine rashes start to come. I'm afraid to go for allopathic treatment because of side effects. Should I continue with homeopathic treatment or switch to allopathic for complete treatment?

Hi! Thank you for your query. Psoriasis is a common skin problem. It occurs equally in men and women, at any age, and tends to come and go unpredictably. It is not infectious, and does not leave any scar on the skin. Some people are more likely to develop psoriasis than others, particularly if there is someone else in their family who has psoriasis: in other words, it is a genetic or hereditary disease. However, the trigger for psoriasis to appear is often an event, such as a throat infection, stress or an injury to the skin, or a dry weather. There is no permanent cure for psoriasis. However, treatment to control the signs and symptoms is usually effective. The skin becomes less scaly and may then look completely normal. However, even if your psoriasis disappears after treatment, there is a tendency for it to return. This may not happen for many years. Dermatologists mainly treat psoriasis based on the severity of the disease, size of the areas involved, type of psoriasis, where the psoriasis is located, and the patient’s response to initial treatments. The treatment involves topical therapy, phototherapy and systemic treatment with medicines. Phototherapy uses natural ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun and controlled delivery of artificial UV light are used in treating psoriasis. It is a completely painless procedure with no side effects. Narrow band UVB is a blessing for treating psoriasis. A life style modification goes a great way in helping control psoriasis. You can consult on private chat with clinical photographs for personalized treatment.
