A member asked:
Psoriasis on elbows/knees recently used apple cider vinegar (orally) & olive oil/acv baths now many bright red spots on thighs and lower leg help!

Psoriasis: Stay away from any harsh things on the skin. Topical Hydrocortisone may help as well as some sun exposure. Many times psoriasis will require prescription medications if you have already been diagnosed with it by your doctor.

Unproven: The theraputic options you have choosen are un proven. They are not helping and potentially making things worse. Go to your dr and get evaluation done with fda treatment.

Let it settle: I'm really sorry that you seem to have made your psoriasis worse with the phony apple cider vinegar "cure". Get back with your dermatologist, confess everything, and get treated scientifically once again.
