Hi,
I'm Paul 64 and plagued by Psoriasis. Elbows Knees and back, and the cheeks of my bum!
Been using Dovobet but it's very temporary. Would like to go swimming more but not like this.
Keep scratching and make the sheets look like a bloodbath.

Any hints welcome.

Paul

Hi Paul great that you have found us   to a unique psoriasis site. The site is truly independent and run by a sufferer for sufferers to meet and talk about our treatments and feelings without any outside influences, you dive in, you will find us a very friendly welcoming group

Psoriasis is a difficult unpleasant disease to control, but there are many of us here that have it under control, not cured but controlled....
Are you seeing a dermatologist.  If not you should and tell them that the steriod cream is failing you, and you need a better treatment.... You can find them all here, Prescribed Treatments For Psoriasis read about them and then come and ask questions if you have any ....
I hope you will enjoy the forum and gain plenty of information to ask your doctor or dermatologist when you next see them

But I can assure you there is a treatment that will work for you, it's not always easy finding it though....I have been  clear the last 5 years on my treatment and will be 70 this year and am enjoying great times on the beach with my grandchildren and no longer worry about showing my skin
