What is psoriasis: causes and symptoms ^
Psoriasis is a non-infectious chronic non-infectious dermatitis that affects the entire body or parts of it.
The causes of psoriasis are alcohol intoxication, heredity, severe stress, hormonal changes, prolonged sun exposure, hypothermia, or prolonged exposure to strong medications.
The main symptoms of psoriasis are:
- The appearance of red or bright pink scaly papules( spots), which subsequently form large plaques;
- Severe itching of the affected skin;
- Weakness.
Depending on the initial stage of manifestation and location of the pathological process, the disease has the following varieties - pustular, spotted, seborrhoeic, plaque-like, plantar, drop-shaped, inverse, arthropathic, vulgar and other forms of psoriasis.
Folk treatment of psoriasis combines several techniques at once:
- Internal exposure and cleansing;
- External therapy - baths, ointments, compresses.
Folk remedies for the treatment of psoriasis act in several directions:
- For the removal of inflammation with pruritus, beekeeping products, birch tar, needles, chamomile, celandine, calendula, oak bark, string and licorice are used;
- To enhance the immune system, vitaminized drinks are offered - teas with raspberries, mountain ash, lemon, kalina or dog rose;
- Soothing effects on the sick skin are peach, avocado, apricot or olive oil. Sea-buckthorn oil is used as an healing.
In addition, home treatment of psoriasis is accompanied by an internal intake of herbal remedies, which are aimed at anti-inflammatory, carminative, choleretic and cleansing effects.
However, the treatment of psoriasis at home will be effective only if the patient adheres to a therapeutic diet for psoriasis and excludes salting, smoked meat, marinades, sweets, alcohol, fatty and fried foods from his diet.
Treatment of psoriasis in children
Therapy of pediatric dermatosis should be immediate in order to avoid its further progression. Psoriasis occurs either on separate parts of the child's body - knees, buttocks, elbows, head, arms, legs, chest or completely covers the whole body, including the face, with papules.
The comprehensive wellness approach includes mandatory medication, regular hygienic care, some folk remedies and a diet saturated with vitamins and limiting animal fats.
In adult dermatosis it is necessary to adhere to practically the same therapy as is prescribed for a child. Treatment of psoriasis with home remedies in the form of herbal baths or natural ointments with compresses can be used regardless of age. However, medications for children and adults are somewhat different from each other and can be prescribed exclusively by a dermatologist.
