✔ FAQ:

😫 Does it hurt?  
On its own, it hurts when the skin gets super dry.  The act of scraping, scrubbing, or other forms of removal do not hurt.

🥥 Favorite Moisturizers?
Coconut oil - works best for penetration with a pleasant scent.  Also helps well with removal of the flakes!

💉What medications are you on?  
Currently I'm on a biologic injection.  Consult your doctor to see which is best for you.  Examples are Enbrel, Humira, Stelara, Taltz, Cosentyx.

✂ What treatments have you used?  
Clobestal, betamethasone dipropionate, dovonex, and various other steroids, UVB, salt baths, and creams.

🍏 Have you tried various natural diets? 
Yup!  Didn't work for me.

🧙‍♂️ What is Plaque Psoriasis?  Psoriasis is a skin disorder / immune system disorder that presents itself as red, raised patches of skin.  These red patches will then become scaly and flaky due to the increased regeneration rate of the skin cells.  Normal skin regenerates approximately every 30 days.  Psoriasis skin regenerates 3-6 days.  It regenerates so quickly that the dead skin doesn't have time to release itself, thus continually growing in thickness until eventually it is too dry and falls off!   Hairy areas general are more proned to psoriasis, not sure why.  My scalp psoriasis used to produce large patches and flakes, and I mistook them for dandruff when I scratched.

There are many types of psoriasis:
plaque
guttate
inverse
pustular
erythrodermic
psoriatic arthritis
