Cheryl Adkins Goad Thanks to all who responded to my post about my psoriatic arthritis. I am going to take one more Humira injection and the rheumotologist is putting me on something different if no change. What is usually next? Does anyone know? I am just so aggravated with no postiive changes in this terrible disease. My hands are ...not getting any better they are dry and peeling constantly and then when I put a medicine on them they turn blood red. The painful part is when they swell and just crack open. Any advice?

my feet are like your hands...... I use just gobs of Vaseline on them put socks on and or plastic bags (sounds funny I know) every night before bed for relief. If the cracks are really sore and broken, I use an over the counter tube of triple antibiotic ointment so I don't get infected. I've also heard that Vics vapor rub works magic for psoriasis also but, not on open wounds. Haven't tried it yet. Good luck!

No pain, no vain for us..LOL.. I've been seeing the same gal that does my hair for years now and she is so used to it, she never says a word..I wish everyone was like that! Or better yet, I wish the coloring would just eat the pain and psoriasis away.. If they can come up with viagra......

Lydia Okay! this might help everyone in this season, Aspal apple cider vinegar.
I've got really bad psoriasis and this dry, sun-lacked season does not help.
I've tried it for around 3 weeks, and its reduced amazingly!
I generally have a 1/2 small sherry glass and the rest of the amount water, it tastes horrid, almost unbarabl...e but take once in the morning and once in the evening for a few weeks.
You will never EVER believe the results.

hope this helps you all :)

Curtis Bradburn What is the very best body lotion you can use for Psoriasis?

I have found that the new vaseline clinical therapy flattens scales a bit and reduces redness.
