Michael Ramos3 said:Since there aren't any side effects with your kid, I say just keep applying it! Even after the rash fades, keep massaging the area. Think about it—if the issue is still lurking under the surface, keeping up the routine might create that necessary continuity. It could slow down how fast it pops up again or weaken the intensity while it's still under the skin.
I figure we have nothing to lose and everything to gain here.
I’m calling on everyone else here to weigh in. Since this is the first time anyone is testing this ointment on this specific condition, let's hear your thoughts.

Hard work, faith, and persistence always pay off in the end.

With faith in God,

Best,

There you go—read it and decide for yourselves. Experiment at your own risk! I'm heading out for a swim.👋 👋

rapidpanther41 said:Robert Clark2 says to Michael Ramos3. If you were going to let everyone here know what kind of shape Octom was in, you really should have.
I see that kind of behavior as nothing more than running away from the truth.

Sure, but it cuts right into the sales profits!!!!!

🙂 Yeah, it definitely hits the sales. That much is a given.

BUT THAT'S NOTHING COMPARED TO THE RISK OF SOMEONE GETTING HURT, because of unverified claims (it's just a game to some).
TALK ABOUT BRAVERY—OR (I can't even find the right word for it) when he actually went out on a limb and posted about experimenting on Korkyre222’s son to try to cure neurodermatitis, or allergic dermatitis. I reacted, and the moderator did too.

Stay safe and take care!👍

P.S.

I promised last night I'd run some checks on Hot Springs today, but it totally slipped my mind that it's Sunday. I'll get on it tomorrow.

silentheron25 said:What's the deal with those hot springs? Is it like some kind of petroleum therapy or just a standard spa? Looking at their site, it seems like a wellness retreat. I need more details—what exactly do they offer, how does it work, and what's the cost? Give me the scoop!

To be honest, I’ve passed through Hot Springs hundreds of times over the years, staying there quite a bit. It’s right at the base of the Rocky Mountains.
I have tons of buddies and friends in that area. They all know I struggle with generalized psoriasis, but nobody ever mentions it as a way to cure it.
I don't want to jump to conclusions about the quality of the facility, so I'm going to make some calls tomorrow. I'll even send a friend straight to the site to check out the treatment quality firsthand.

I'll post everything I find out tomorrow night.

Best,👍

There are over 700 known subtypes of psoriasis out there. So, let’s just assume there are 700 different ways to clear it up using the exact same treatment. Don't expect your journey to look anything like someone else's.

ERYTHEMATOSQUAMOUS DERMATOSES consist of 7 primary and 5 specific forms of psoriasis.
I don't think I need to list them all out, but hey, if you really want me to, just say the word.
If someone is dealing with psoriasis and picks up another condition on top of it, stop slapping subtype labels on everything. Dermatology has already clearly drawn those lines.

Saying there are over 700 known subtypes of psoriasis? That's just plain nonsense.😵 😵 😵 😵

Stop trying to defend the indefensible.👎

If you felt the need to update the forum members about what happened with Gregory Mendoza3, then you should have done it.
To me, staying quiet like that just looks like running away from the truth.👎
Psoriasis [PLEASE READ FIRST POST!] in Health ·
Gregory Mendoza3, glad to see you back on the forum!
Reading your story, it’s clear you’ve been through the ringer—talk about walking through fire.
Thank God, and honestly, thanks to modern medicine too, that you're still standing with us. At the end of the day, who we thank matters less than the fact that you're actually here.
We've got plenty of time, so let's take it slow and unpack everything piece by piece. Your raw, honest take on the illness and how you handled treatment deserves that kind of deep dive.

Warmest wishes to you and your family!

Don't go splitting the forum between people using your ointment and those who aren't—it’s just not fair. You found the best, cheapest marketing right here for what we might call your "revolutionary" salve. Will time prove it works?
I can't quote all your posts, but I'll try to paraphrase them.
Honestly, I'm not sure who to thank anymore: you, God, or just pure luck regarding how this stuff works, since its actual mechanism remains a mystery for now.
Are you ready to face a courtroom if this ointment causes unwanted side effects down the road? Then again, since nobody actually knows who you are, you can say whatever you want when there's no author signature attached.
You keep insisting it didn't help your father for seven years, but that doesn't mean it won't work for everyone else.
I noticed a detail related to a post I wrote to Charles Chavez regarding keeping a journal for his son's illness. Sure, journaling is good, but neither you nor your father seem to be doing it, despite how many customers and how much ointment you've sold by now. A journal could be pretty awkward evidence in court if this turns out to be quack medicine.

Moderators, since you've allowed Michael Ramos3 to advertise here outside of the usual rules, why not let him post his full details too—like a unique ID, phone number, or email?Or, he can sell his ointment without the commentary, making sure to leave the forum members who haven't bought it alone.

Best regards to everyone on the forum.

So I finally started dipping myself in the Atlantic. I definitely caught some stares when I climbed out of the water—mostly because the salt was making my skin look pretty red and irritated—but hey, I survived! Honestly, I should’ve started sooner, but the heatwave was just too intense to deal with. Being in the water felt amazing, though. Once I dry off, the salt starts to sting, but it’s worth it. I’m going back tomorrow, and every single day after that, at least until my schedule gets too packed up with set appointments.
Applying lotion is only an option once I get home and hop in the shower, then I'll just head out into the shade under an olive tree.

Joshua Allen54 said:Thanks, Robert Clark2. Honestly, you've got a point there. I’m actually rooting against them coming back—given how things look right now, they shouldn't even be allowed to.

Personally? It would be a huge win if they never show their faces again.

Joshua Allen54 said:Look, I wasn't spreading lies—I was just telling it like it is. If you don't believe me, go down to the local CVS and see for yourself. It seems like most people are on board, and it's just a few skeptics left, including you. Look, I'm done arguing. I know I got rid of it, so think whatever you want.

There’s absolutely no room for fighting here, or heaven forbid, nasty language.
Let’s just talk like civilized people,
I dealt with my illness properly, learned exactly what I was dealing with, and now I'm living life totally fine without any hang-ups.
Don't get too cocky thinking you've finally beaten psoriasis for good. It'll catch you off guard when you least expect it. And then what? You're right back at square one. I refuse to kid myself anymore.
If the official word from American doctors is that psoriasis is a chronic, incurable condition that keeps coming back, then "getting rid of it" doesn't mean it won't return.
To everyone out there trying topical creams,I truly wish you a permanent cure,but let's just let time tell. Like they say,time is the ultimate judge.We shouldn't get in the way of people using their creams; eventually, they'll come forward with their own results.

Michael Ramos3 said:How long did your worst flare-ups last, and was there ever a time when you were 100% clear?
Everyone needs to chime in—all of you on this forum—so we can compare notes against how these ointments work. We need to figure out the timeline for when people should finally say "BINGO!"
Take Lisa, for example; she says her skin cleared up almost entirely except for her head (she’s pregnant)
. Let us know if you've found any remedies—and I mean real stuff, not steroids or other toxic junk—that actually wiped it out completely. Once we see the wait times, we can all agree together and shout "BINGO!" on her behalf.
We'll even ask everyone to check back in a year from now if they need to, just to see if it stayed away or came back.
What's one year compared to being 35? I have no intention of giving up, and honestly, that year is going to fly by in our lives anyway.

So let's just stay positive

and put our faith in God

Best,

Don't go begging people to check in. They’ll show up on their own without you asking.The whole idea of pregnancy—or what the law calls "expecting"—is usually a blessing for the woman. During that time, psoriasis often goes quiet or even seems to vanish completely. The trouble starts later, once the pregnancy ends, the birth happens, and that postpartum hormonal rollercoaster hits. After that, the psoriasis slowly but surely creeps back.

It's funny how you always do this—you talk about trying 1,000 different things
that cost a fortune, or mention how a year is nothing compared to being 35, or throw in these weird comparisons about some celebrity news or scandals. Man, it makes no sense. The shame someone feels dealing with psoriasis isn't something you can compare to celebrity gossip or social scandals. Just draw a line and stop mixing them up.
And I don't get why you dismiss official medicine by calling everything "chemicals." For all we know, your favorite ointment is full of chemicals too. Nobody knows for sure.

Best!

Joshua Allen54 said:I don't hang around here all that much, so I gotta ask—has anyone actually tried that cream from over in Mexico that Brexy was talking about? I'm seriously on the fence about picking it up. Should I go for it or what?

Mario, Brexy 24—is that you? Or is it Brexy, or maybe Joshua Allen54? Whatever name you're rolling with today!Look, let’s keep this strictly to the public threads. Don't hit me up with private messages—there’s nothing between us to discuss behind closed doors. I’m calling you out right here in front of everyone on this forum so we can clear the air. Honestly, there isn't even any confusion to clear up, unless you count those loaded posts of yours. You keep dropping these heavy hints about that herbalist from Dimitrovgrad like you're trying to run an ad for him. Let's just settle it here in the open!
The posts you’ve put up here are identical to the ones on the Cruise forum—you’re basically just repeating the same pitch and offering help everywhere. Back on May 5, 2007, you made this massive post in all caps, introducing yourself as Mario from Samobor. The moderators jumped on you immediately! They told you that typing in all caps is the digital equivalent of screaming, which breaks their rules. Plus, they flagged you for advertising herbal remedies by dropping specific names and phone numbers. You even went as far as... So, what if the moderator kicked you off this forum just because you claimed they were spreading misinformation? Totally wild!So, apparently nobody believes you when you say that herbalist from small-town Ohio actually cured you!
All those supposed "cures"? Total nonsense. Honestly, no sane person buys into that stuff—certainly not when we're talking about dealing with psoriasis. And look, just don't go offering unsolicited advice. If you aren't constantly hovering over every single psoriasis thread, stop trying to jump in with unasked-for help.
Anything else? That’s just fishing in muddy waters to me. It’s pure exploitation—taking advantage of sick people just to line your own pockets or serve some healer's ego. It’s like leading vulnerable folks to believe some roadside witch doctor can fix them, only to swoop in right on cue and say, "Hey, you gotta see this person!" It's shady. Total scam.
It’s all so obvious, it’s practically transparent. Like, you can see right through it!
Look, let's get one thing straight: practicing medicine without a license? That’s a crime. And trying to sell or distribute fake, unapproved treatments? Also a total crime. It's illegal, plain and simple. Anyone helping out gets labeled an accomplice, and yeah, that same law can come down on them too.

Here's my response to those two private messages you sent me yesterday and today.

Calling on the moderator here! Time to step up and use those tools according to the rules of this forum. But first, take a good look at my facts and make sure I'm right.

Just grab it already! What are you waiting for?👋

Brexy would probably give you the lowdown himself if he hadn't been banned from every single forum out there.🙂 🙂

Sophia Campbell73;9044528 said:copperviper102, I am seriously so happy about your results! Just curious—did you ever deal with psoriasis flare-ups in other spots that have since cleared up? And how many years have you been fighting this?

Look, psoriasis is a chronic, recurring beast. You might use a specific treatment and see it clear up perfectly, but then—boom—it decides to show up again in that exact same spot, or even worse, spread to a totally different area. It’s completely unpredictable.
Just my two cents based on what I've seen.

Sophia Campbell73 said:Gabby, don't sweat it! You aren't alone. I live near the coast too, so I just catch the waves on TV. As for hiding skin during this insane heatwave? Forget it. I'm not even trying to camouflage my face, let alone my elbows. If people don't like what they see, they can look elsewhere. Mind your own business!
Best!

Why is everyone getting so worked up about having psoriasis? It shouldn't stop you from hitting the beach and soaking up the sun like everyone else. Look, I get it, but everyone’s got something going on. I’m heading out to swim first thing after the weekend. Trust me, those "perfect" people around you aren't all healthy either—everyone’s carrying some hidden medical issue under their skin.
I usually just head to the middle of the beach where the nudists hang out. That's not the "official" area, but if they can do their thing, why can't I? And honestly, why would they care about me? I can dress modestly or just enjoy the water and swim like anyone else.
There's room for everybody at the beach, so don't let insecurities win.
Pro tip: Get there early in the morning before the crowds show up. They'll glance your way while they're getting ready, then everyone just goes about their day.

jadesailor14 said:Even a kid could figure that one out.😁
But hey, if you don't prep it right, it can actually backfire on you.
Even if I know it’s good for me, my stomach just turns at the mere smell of it.😬

If the oil is high-quality, it shouldn't have a strong scent. Honestly, even I struggled at first when I was taking it straight by the spoonful. But thank God, once I switched to a small 0.3 shot, it became easy. Don't overthink it—just tilt the glass back and before you know it, it's down. The first and third shots are always the toughest part; anyone who enjoys a good whiskey knows that feeling. Just grab the second one instead and you won't have any issues!

Casey Miller9 said:Just ask him—I’ve got high blood pressure issues myself!

Olive leaf tea is the way to go.
Boil up about twenty olive leaves in 300 grams of water. Let it simmer down until you're left with about 200 grams of liquid, then strain it. Add a little sweetener if you want, and sip it warm before breakfast and dinner.
It works wonders for managing high blood pressure because it helps dilate those blood vessels.

jadesailor14 said:As someone who works at Continental, this sounds absolutely terrifying to me.
I guess I still haven't found the right extra virgin olive oil yet!
Look, I’ve got my own little guilty pleasure that might raise some eyebrows. Pumpkin seed oil. That's my thing! 😁

Olive oil is honestly one of the greatest gifts nature has ever handed us. It’s not just some heavy fat; it’s pure fuel that anyone can benefit from, especially if you're dealing with issues with your internal organs. I usually follow a simple routine: drink it for three weeks, take a little break, and then jump right back in for another three weeks. Simple as that!
A buddy of mine is dealing with some kidney stones and grit. I think he’s been mixing olive oil, honey, and lemon to manage it. Look, don't go trying this yourself—definitely not medical advice—but I'm gonna check in with him tomorrow and see if I can grab his specific recipe for you guys.
Olive leaf extract? Yeah, people use that stuff to help manage blood pressure. It’s like a natural way to keep things steady.

Even with psoriasis being the big topic here, I know plenty of people dealing with internal issues too. For instance, I used to struggle with an ulcer in my small intestine, but I'm totally clear of that now!

Look, despite all the health stuff going on, I’m still living my life! I might grab a drink here and there—nothing crazy, just a little something to keep things moving.

Casey Miller9 said:Look, about 99% of the oil produced here in the States uses cold pressing nowadays. It’s not some big secret! The whole thing comes down to using water during production to rinse the fruit after grinding. Back in the day, they used hot water to squeeze out every last drop of oil, but that totally trashed the nutritional value. Now? Modern American mills stick to cold water. That's it. You get oil that's basically identical to what was inside the fruit—zero loss in nutrients. Sure, you might lose maybe 2-3% of the actual oil yield, but honestly, who cares? That's negligible.

For harvesting, people use those cherry harvesters while the fruit is still on the tree. Anything that falls onto the grass or onto sheets laid out on the ground has to be gathered up and sent to the mill within three days max. And whatever you do, don't let them sit in water or spray them with water! The milling process is pretty much the same everywhere. When the paste hits the press, that first bit of pure oil that flows out on its own—we call that virgin run. That stuff is top-tier. Some folks even use it to make alternative remedies for lung cancer. Before anything gets ground, the olives get rinsed with water to clear off any dirt or debris.
Every single morning starting in the fall, I drink one small shot—about 3 ounces.

Chris Morgan67 said:I’ve gotta say, your logic totally checks out. Everyone knows St. John's Wort oil is phototoxic when you're out in the sun... so logically, it'd be the same if it's just sitting in a bottle.

But honestly? Like 99% of people just slap it on and head straight into the sunlight.

Robert Clark2, how do you prep your St. John's Wort?

It's pretty easy. I just pack the flowers (both male and female varieties) and some leaves until they fill about a third of the bottle, then top it off with oil and seal it tight. Best bet is to keep it in a clear bottle tucked away in the shade where there's a good breeze. I wait about 40 days for it to turn that deep, dark red before I use it. Then I strain it. Doesn't matter if you strain it later on.
Once it's strained, I keep it in a dark room—somewhere cool, too. You don't want it getting heated up, otherwise, like they say down south, the oil might go rancid. Just keep aside whatever amount you actually need to use.

jadesailor14 said:Man, you’re living the dream! 🙂
So gorgeous

Gosh, I’m so jealous of everyone out by the coast

I’m no expert on oils, but it just makes sense not to leave them in the sun. Heat messes things up, right? And we all know sunlight can wreck the good stuff in most substances

Olive trees live forever. There’s one near me that’s over 2,000 years old, and they just found another one that might even be older than that. They’re still producing fruit!

Everywhere I read about St. John's Wort oil and how to prep it, it always mentions keeping it in a bottle sitting right in the sun.

I actually disagree—I'm with you on this one.

If someone puts St. John's Wort oil on their skin and then goes out in the sun, it becomes phototoxic. So, logically, why wouldn't it be phototoxic inside the bottle too? It just clicks for me.

Chris Morgan67 might have some thoughts on this too.
