Hello
I really appreciate your concern I had gone through your question and photograph very diligently and I will help you in best possible way.
Once develops or diagnosed, psoriasis can be managed symptomatically
There is no proven permanent cure of the psoriasis
as it is caused by overactivity of body our own immune system which may start to attack healthy skin cells
Here I would like more information to help you better

Have you seen any doctor or ordered any investigation

You should continue with dermadew and lozivate ointment
Please revert back to me with these details so that I will be able to tell you more accurately about further course of action.

Hi
Thank you for the reply,yes i have consulted a skin specialist before 3 years and he had prescribed the ointments which im continuing now
It will be cured if i apply these ointments continously but will again occur after few days
No investigation is done particularly for this issue
But i do a mster health check up which will cover all basic investigtion
Except esonophil rest all normal in earlier investigations

Hello
Your welcome.
as i told you its a chronic skin disease which may not cure permanently but can be kept under control with symptomatic treatment.
since I can't physically examine you to get more clues so here I would like to advise you to consult a skin specialist for HLA B 27 testing and absolute eosinophil count and PUVA therapy about which your doctor knows.
Meanwhile continue with the ointment you are using presently.
Hope this answers your question
Best wishes
