Toby Hadoke has suffered with psoriasis since childhood. The condition, which causes red, scaly patches of skin, is distressing and can be painful.

'At its worst, I felt like I'd been stung by a thousand bees,' says Toby, a 40-year-old comedian and writer from north London.

But recently he's found a surprising treatment that has transformed his symptoms. Much of his skin used to be covered in flaky patches. Today, these areas are merely slightly pink and dry.
