Hi -- I'm new.
I've never been on drugs for psoriasis, but I do find that sunlight helps tremendously. So all summer and into the fall, I'm doing ok. But then winter comes. The sunlight isn't very strong and I'd get frostbite if I went out without clothes. Things get worse and I find I'm just holding on until spring.
So I'm wondering what the options are for home phototherapy. Is anyone actually doing this? If so, what equipment would be recommended?
It's mostly in my nails, but I have wondered if the winter time arthritis I get is also related.
