19 years old male just started flaring up

[jiml]

I'm 19 years old and a male, about a year ago I started getting dermatitis on my hands and it made an impact on my work. as I'm a plumber I'm very hands on, so I'm constantly getting dusty and dry skin whether I like it or not.
But around a month or two ago I've slowly been flaring up with psoriasis on my arms and legs, I've not yet gone to the doctors about this as I've read up on a lot of sites saying they just give you steroid creams which is all I was given for my dermatitis which did not work.
At the moment I'm trying the homeopathic stuff.. Whether it works or not I don't know I'm just trying to grab at anything that will get rid.
But I was just wondering whether anyone has any advice or info as it's making a big impact on my home and work life and is quite depressing to say the least,
Thanks.

Hi Itchy and   to the club you will find a lot of information here, to help you ...as a young man it is important to get the Psoriasis under control , and I have to say I doubt you will get much relief from the disease from homeopathic treatment ....my best advice to you is to get your doctor to refer you to a dermatologist at a hospital... they have more to offer than a GP .
