Anyone know what this skin condition is? It disappears sometimes (like for a few months) but it always returns. Is there some OTC ointment I can use? I've had it for alike a year, but I have not seen a dermatologist. I made an appointment for two weeks from now though.

how do you treat it? That's what a friend told me as well. Anything OTC or do I have to get prescription?

It's hard to see, is it a bunch of miniature warts?

Psoriasis? Oh, it never goes away. You can treat it, but it'll come back eventually. It's not really on the top priorities to find a cure for yet...

But you'll have to go to a dermatologist to get any cream that'll work. You may be able to get an over the counter cortisone that may help, but prescription creams work the best.

its a patch of skin, that looks like it's dry and it is elevated from the surrounding skin. It doesn't itch.

Is it white and flaky? Then it's psoriasis. Let me tell you, that shit sucks. A lot. I have it everywhere, but thankfully with the use of medicines they go away for a while.

You're not going to find anything useful with OTC products. I hate to tell you that. But trust someone who has had it since the 5th grade. The only thing that'll work are Prescriptions. Be careful though, as they are strong and can bruise your skin.

Oh, I share this dreaded skin disorder with you, man... I've had it since kindergarten, when my mom noticed a small red bump on my scalp. Shit sucks so god damn much. I remember when I lost a shit load of weight and actually got a nice looking body, I still couldn't show it off because of scattered psoriasis on my abs.

im just curious as to what you psoriasis fags have tried. please dont say 'everything', because thats a bullshit copout from giving a real answer

have you tried urea based moisturisers (inb4piss) or 25% glycerol creams? clinical trials have shown one of these cream (which will remain nameless) to be superior to most steroid creams
