Psoriasis Home Remedies:

Submitted by Jason at 2012-06-25 03:00:11 Recently on a trip, I noticed my psoriasis reduced dramatically. When I got back home I showed my wife and asked what she thought the cause was.....within a day however, it was back in full force.

I began to back track and see what was different and low and behold I found it. At our house, we have big jugs of juice in our fridge that we all drink from. I drink on an average 5-10 glasses per day.

I realized that was the only thing missing from my trip. I stopped drinking the juice.....and within one week, the redness, flaking, cracking, and hurting in my fingers is 95% better. Almost completely gone in fact for the first time in several years.

I then began to research the juice and psoriasis relationship. It was the ASPARTAME!!!!!!!!! I have eliminated it completely and I am all (dare I say) but psoriasis free..... My fingers show little signs of anything. In fact, at a normal glance, you can't see a drop of psoriasis.

This may be an all too overlooked contributor to the horrible red appearance, painful cracking, and flare ups.

While trying ointments, medicine, ultraviolet therapy, and spending $$ with no success, I found the answer literally under my nose in the cup I was drinking from. I hope this works for you!!! DOWN WITH ASPARTAME!!! rating: 9 (140 votes)

Psoriasis - My Home Remedies

La psoriasis es una enfermedad de la piel que causa picazn o parches dolorosos de piel engrosada y enrojecida con escamas plateadas. Suele aparecer en los hombros, las rodillas, el cuero cabelludo, la espalda, la cara, las palmas de las manos y las plantas de los pies, pero tambin puede presentarse en otras partes del cuerpo. Algunas personas con esta condicin pueden adquirir una forma de artritis conocida como artritis psorisica.

La causa de la psoriasis es un problema en el sistema inmunolgico. En un proceso llamado recambio celular, las clulas de la piel que crecen en la parte ms profunda de la piel avanzan hacia la superficie. Normalmente, esto demora un mes. En la psoriasis, ocurre en algunos das debido a que las clulas avanzan demasiado rpido.

La psoriasis puede persistir por mucho tiempo, incluso durante toda la vida. Los sntomas aparecen y desaparecen y los factores que pueden empeorarlos incluyen:

La psoriasis suele ocurrir entre los adultos. Algunas veces es hereditaria. Los tratamientos incluyen cremas, medicinas y fototerapia.

Biofeedback Currently, 74% of patients who visit their health care providers have undiagnosed medical conditions. Most of the symptoms are a culmination of stress, anxiety, and depression. Health care professionals choose to treat these patients ineffectively with medications instead of offering stress management options. These stress management techniques have proven to have an 82% success rate among students in a semester-long stress management program.

Many college students succumb to stress-related illnesses and several studies have been conducted, with positive results, to introduce stress management programs into their lives. The Biofeedback article,There Is Hope: Autogenic Biofeedback Training for the Treatment of Psoriasis, discusses the outcome of a 23-year-old test subject with stress-related psoriasis, who gave up medicinal treatments and instead used the self-healing method of biofeedback to control his disease.

Psoriasis causes red, flaky skin and is currently the most common autoimmune disease affecting approximately 2% of the US population. Many people afflicted with this disease use steroids, topical creams, special shampoos, and prescription medication. Unfortunately, the disease can only be suppressed, not cured; many people with psoriasis feel damaged and have a difficult time socially. Stress is often the trigger that makes ones psoriasis worse. In this study, James, a 23-year-old student suffering from the disease for five years, learns how to train his mind to not give into stress, feelings of anxiety, self-doubt, or even the need to physically touch his affected skin.

James was trained in stress management and biofeedback techniques including relaxation, stress reduction, and desensitization. He also learned how to increase his confidence by changing his body posture while sitting and standing. James was instructed to take his time, slow down, and even stop and refocus his energy when he felt the need to fall back into old habits. He admits that it was difficult, and at times he would have to stop focusing on the task in front of him to put all of his energy into regaining his composure, but that it was also worth it. After three weeks, James had clear skin, something he had not had in five years, and after four months his progress remained intact.

There are many diseases and ailments that require the use of medication for appropriate treatment, but when stress is a factor in any diagnosis, or when a diagnosis cannot be found, it is important for stress management to be offered as a viable option for patients to consider. It is obvious, shown through the case of James, that stress can play a huge factor in the health of an individual. And if managed properly, a happy and healthy life is attainable.

Guttate psoriasis Classification and external resources

Back torso lesions, 30 year old female patient

Guttate psoriasis (also known as "Eruptive psoriasis") is a type of psoriasis that presents as small (0.5-1.5cm in diameter) lesions over the upper trunk and proximal extremities; it is found frequently in young adults.[1]:410[2]:194 Guttate psoriasis is classically triggered by a bacterial infection, usually an upper respiratory tract infection.[3]:726

For some people it starts as a throat infection, or strep throat. After the throat infection has cleared up the person can feel fine for several weeks before noticing the appearance of red spots. They appear small at first, like a dry red spot which is slightly itchy. When scratched or picked the top layer of dry skin is removed, leaving dry, red skin beneath with white, dry areas marking where flakes of dry skin stop and start. In the weeks that follow the spots can grow to as much as an inch in diameter. Some of the larger ones may form a pale area in the centre which is slightly yellow. Treatment is often a mild steroid, such as hydrocortisone, but this is not always effective. Other treatment include exposing the affected area of the skin to sunlight (while avoiding sunburn). The condition often but not always clears up on its own. The guttate psoriasis can occur on any part of the body, particularly the legs, arms, torso, eyelids, back, bottom, bikini-line and neck. Generally the parts of the body most affected are seen on the arms, legs, back and torso. Enthusiastic exfoliation can lead to bleeding so care and moisturisation are important to keep the affected skin healthy.
