hi;
Psoriasis is an auto-immune skin disorder difficult although not impossible to cure.Please under stand that for psoriasis there is always some underlying cause which is acting against our body.It can be mental stress;odd work conditions ;allergy ;grief .Once the cause is controlled psoriasis can be controlled .As for drug allergy of sulfonamide group (what you say sulfur) it is inborn & cannot be corrected (at least no documented treatment available).Still in Homoeopathy they say it can get cured .
thanks

yes it definitely can be reduced.what u have probably is what is called as chronic plaque type of psoriasis which is managable with topical medications, such emmolients, keratolytics , topical steroids, vitamin D analouges.u need to be seen by a good dermatologist and be monitored regularly.
