Tanning addiction in psoriasis patients

[Kat]

Glad to know I’m not the only one. The only tan I get is from walking the dogs. I never found that being outside in the sun helped much with the psoriasis much, but I guess it does help some.

I haven't noticed it helping either.

I feel asleep in a hammock once after swimming… I looked like a tan and pink checkerboard for about a week.

When I was a teenager and tanning was just something we did, I was laying out in the sun and fell asleep... with my hand on my stomach so I had a handprint for quite a long time.
