When you get to see your doctor be prepared . Read on here of the different things your doctor can offer it will be basic creams and potions
It could be one of many things he will offer, if you have tried them before without success politely tell him you will take them but you want a referral to a dermatologist
The things you may get offered are to be found here Dovobet And Dovonex (What's the difference ?)
I would read this as it tells you a lot about the creams,
Also have a look at my treatment ( it's not available everywhere
unfortunately
It's a good long term drug and has been brilliant for me for over 4 years
Link here Fumaderm
You are likely to be offered uv treatment first, it's usually 3 times a week at the hospital.
Or they may offer you methotrexate Methotrexate or acetretin Acitretin
If you read up on the various treatments you will be able to talk to your doctor and dermatologist and understand what you are being offered
If you have any questions ask away someone on here will probably have an answer
