Is there is any treatment for psoriasis is it curable can you tell me and treatment for it which will remove it permanentaly
There is no cure for psoriasis and I have had it for as long as I can remember. My grandmother suffered from it too, and my late father developed it after a severe bout of stress. For years, the only thing the doctor would prescribe were steroid creams which were a complete waste of time and harmful to my skin. It became much thinner because of the creams and would bruise at the slightest bump.
Several years ago a concerned friend researched it thoroughly on the internet and other venues. He suggested that I take some vitamins which he found to be helpful to psoriasis. After two years of taking them, my skin is clear and haven't had any flare-ups. I don't want to stop taking them because I know that the psoriasis will return if I do. Neutrogena T/Gel shampoo was also a tremendous help to my scalp and I don't have any symptoms there at all either. Hope this helps!
I have also had psoriasis for about 15 years and am trying to treat my skin without harmful steroids. I have tried kelp and am taking B-12 and Vitamin E. You say it took two years on these other vitamins for your skin to clear completely? I stopped taking the kelp after a few months because I didn't see any difference.

Yes, it took two years for the psoriasis to clear completely, but the result came on gradually...so much so that I hardly noticed/knew when my skin had started to become clearer. I too was tempted to give up taking the vitamins after a few months because I thought they weren't helping, but friends encouraged me to keep taking them and I am glad that I did. I am still taking them on a daily basis though because the psoriasis will return if I stop completely. (I know this because I stopped taking them for a while and the psoriasis started to appear again)

I use "butt aid" diaper rash cream for my scalp psoriasis, it has only been 2 days but all of my flakes are gone. You get butt aid from the dollar tree.
it's super difficult to remove from hair though, since it's so greasy, it took me 3 showers with lots of dish soap and conditioner since shampoo did nothing to get it out.
I've found that the key is being active- if I maintain a healthy diet (greens/low fat) and keep running (I sweat it out every day for at least 30 min), my psoriasis kind of hibernates. If I deviate even in the slightest, it comes back with a vengance.
I have learned that you placate the psoriasis with calmness, exercise, good food and if you need to...some acupuncture/massage.
This doesn't go away (I'm a 3 hr marathoner now- seriously, it HELPS but it doesnt cure).
