I have psoriasis. You’d think that would be enough to have to say, but it’s not. Therefore, I will attempt to answer a whole lot of questions here:
No, it is not the same as eczema. Eczema is a histamine reaction through the skin. Psoriasis is an over-production of skin cells in a highly localized area; it is believed to be an auto-immune system disorder.
Yes, I have tried that cream / remedy / lotion / pill / method.
No, this is not merely a “dry skin” disorder.
Yes, I see a doctor about it.
No, it’s not affected by the seasons.
Yes, I realize it’s unsightly.
No, there is no cure. It’s not like people are dying from psoriasis. Therefore I feel very fortunate that this is not cancer or blindness or loss of a limb or any of myriad illnesses and/or conditions that would be truly terrible to have to cope with.
Can we all agree that this is the end of the discussion?
Thank you.

Don't forget that my cousin's father's sister's friend's wife's uncle once had it and he made a homemade salve of baking soda and beeswax and bacon grease and it went away, this was after the world renound specialist told him it was the worst case they've ever seen. So you should try that.
That's hilarious! :)
