Éyelid fold help

[Caroline]

First of all, thank you very much for the offer of help, I really appreciate it!!!

1. Apparently my grand mother has it on/in her nails, other than her, I am the only one

That is a small signal that a genetic connection may be there.

2. Probably genetic. I also have Coeliac Disease and keep a strict gluten free diet. Maybe having 1 auto-immune means I am more pre-dispositioned to have another? 

Well there are suggestions, that this might be so, it may even be logical as your immune system may be weaker. BUT.... here at psoriasisclub I don’t know anyone with two auto-immune diseases.

3. During 2015, that's hard to say. I don't think so. It first started under my arm when I was in South America. Then when I got back, I noticed it slowly started on my forehead and scalp. It stayed only in those three places for a decent amount of time. Throughout 2016 it began spreading to my ear lobes and sides of my nose. 5 places, it has spread to a place in my eyebrow, my right eye lid and under my left eye. Those 3 new places began after my inflamed eyelid. So I think stress caused those... because I have been very stressed lately. Mostly from my swollen eyelid.

Stress is a strong factor for the ignition of Psoriasis. Maybe you can do some stress reduction actions? Meditation?

4. Could have been bacterial on my eyelid  + a possible case of chlamidya... :/ That may have influenced it and had a strain on my immune system (cleared now)

Okay, that may be some of an indication. Clamidya is that bacterial? Bacterial infections can also be a trigger and indeed have a strain on your immune system.

I have been reading that you should use the ointment/cream twice a day for 4 weeks maximum. That to me is a very long time. I usually use it for a day or 2 and it clears right up. I thought using it for 2 weeks was a scarily long time. 
I have been using it on and off for 3 weeks on my eye lid.

Okay, but you have seen the reaction of the others, even if you use it sparely, which is very sensible, still you have to take utmost care.

You now are able to use the PM system as you have 5 posts.
