Psoriasis Creams And Lotions: For Fast Relief
Psoriasis Creams And Lotions: For Fast Relief Psoriasis Creams And Lotions If you’ve got psoriasis you already know that it’s a skin condition which creates thick crusts that build-up on the surface of skin and will require the application of some nice psoriasis creams and lotions. These thick skin patches are referred to as psoriatic plaques, and they often appear on different parts of the body including the scalp, knees and elbows. Some psoriasis sufferers however, get the scaly psoriasis skin plaques on other places of their body too. In most cases the skin patches can build up on the face, hands, ankles, and feet. In rare cases psoriatic plaques will develop over most of the body too. This scaly psoriasis created can be very thick patches of skin dry in nature. They also become dry, red, itchy and flaky. Most people who are not familiar with the condition will automatically try using just about any kind of creams and lotions to treat the skin areas. The truth is that most of these don’t work very well though, because they’re too thick to penetrate the thick skin plaques psoriasis creates and are not made specifically for the condition. However, there are some creams and lotions, which are more effective and can help soften the dry skin area and some, can help reduce redness and itching too. Most of the effective creams and lotions that you can use for psoriasis though, contain herbal or vitamin additives which are better able to penetrate the thick skin layers, plus these ingredients tend to work best at helping thin the psoriasis skin plaques out a bit too. If you go to your doctor, he will also likely prescribe medicated creams and lotions used for psoriasis as well. Most are likely to contain various ingredients which may help thin the psoriasis skin patches, reduce itchiness, or help suppress the new skin growth which causes the problems. Psoriasis creams and lotions prescribed by doctor may have ingredients such as coal tar or Vitamin D derivatives. Most of them also have steroids which help http://www.homecureforpsoriasis.com/

Psoriasis Creams And Lotions: For Fast Relief suppress the immune system, and this is what helps slow down the growth of new skin. These prescription creams for psoriasis are made to slow down skin growth because psoriasis is caused by an overreaction of the body’s immune system. Instead of creating new skin about once a month like healthy immune systems do, a psoriasis affected immune system will generate new skin every three to five days. This shortens the time since it is too fast for the existing skin to die off and be shed from the surface of the body. As a result the skin piles up in the form of the thick skin plaques mentioned previously. Almost all the herbal creams and lotions used to treat psoriasis usually contain Aloe Vera. But you will find that using pure aloe Vera juice however, tends to work better than using a cream or lotion which simply contains a little aloe Vera. Most times creams and lotions don’t have enough Aloe Vera in them to do much good and most contain other ingredients that might cause body reactions. Aloe Vera will help soften psoriasis plaques, plus it can help thin the skin patches out too because it helps remove dead skin. Aloe Vera also promotes healing, so it can sometimes help reduce the severity of the psoriasis plaques too. You can also find creams and lotions which contain oatmeal that can be quite helpful. And plain old fashioned oatmeal by itself is the best for the reasons already stated. Psoriasis creams and lotions which contain oatmeal will help clear off dead skin faster though, because oatmeal is a natural exfoliant. Oatmeal also does a wonderful job of softening skin too, and it can help relieve the itching caused by psoriasis as well.
