Help for Psoriasis

This is great news for severe sufferers. I have very mild psoriasis on my palms and bottom of my feet which started when I was 35 yrs old. My dad has it on his shins and elbows. My cousin in her hairline. No one else. I myself wouldn't bother taking this medication as I absolutely know what instigates an outbreak on my hands and feet. I did an elimination diet a few years ago then slowly introduced certain foods I had an idea caused the outbreak. For me those food items were chili peppers (also condiments containing them) and jalapenos. I will avoid these for weeks and then eat nachos with jalapenos then boom the next day I have an itchy outbreak that will take approx a week to heal.

I have great sympathy for those who severely suffer and if this medication can relieve up to 80% then that would be a godsend.

I've just recently developed a small patch of psoriasis on each one of my elbows and behind my left ear...weird....it's not surprising since my paternal grandmother, a paternal uncle and his daughter all had or have it. My grandmother and uncle were pretty severe cases and my cousin and I only have small patches and I'm hoping it doesn't get any worse.

At this point it's just itchy and someone told me sun helps, so I was at the local pool the other day and pointed my elbows up and I have to say, the small patches seem better. I have a lotion I bought at the drugstore that helps the itch.
