Nail Psoriasis
Nail psoriasis for past 6 months. Pitting started on 1 nail, now spread to 4(Hands only).
No history of psoriasis in family. I dont have skin rashes or hair loss. Doc gave Keraglo Men Tablet; Tretin , Elocon & Tacroz cream. Isn't Keraglo for hair loss and Tacroz for vitliligo? Concerned about right medication. Advice.

Greetings.The medications you have been advised are correct. In dermatology - the same medicine may be used for a variety of different disorders. So dont worry. However, is it only nail pitting that you have and that the diagnosis of nail psoriasis was made?.
Keraglow will help replenis any micronutrients. Tacroz is good but i Think you need something stronger for nail psoriasis. Use medications properly as directed by your dermatologist
