Psoriasis [PLEASE READ FIRST POST!] in Health · Jun 20, 2007

Look, let me be clear: I’m not claiming I can permanently cure psoriasis. I’ve just had massive success managing and keeping it under control. I don't guarantee anything to anyone, and everything you do is at your own risk—I take zero responsibility. I hold certifications from all the official institutions and top-tier clinics in Papua New Guinea, and I have extensive photo documentation showing famous "before" and "after" cases, along with contact numbers for satisfied customers. Naturally, the ointment is available EXCLUSIVELY via cash on delivery, and if you aren't happy after 10 days, you can return it for a full refund.

Does that make everyone feel better now?
Is this what you're looking for?
You think I didn't know I could write something like this?
Exactly. That right there is how you sell snake oil.
Am I doing marketing now, or does this finally remind you of those trashy tabloids running ads for breast enlargement pills?

Well, sorry, but I don't deal in that stuff.

With faith in God

jadesailor14 said:yeah true
you're actually right about that
but still, you can't stop a father from rubbing something like petroleum jelly on his kid. it wasn't even an issue back when people used that old-school grease for the same purpose
i'd definitely stick to actual medicine rather than some random creams where nobody knows what's in them
go ahead and experiment on yourself, but on a child? 😱 honestly, it makes me sick
we've become way too obsessed with using kitchen remedies🙄

Michael Ramos3, seriously tone down the ads and the propaganda. write more about the disease and how to fight it, less about selling stuff
besides, don't claim you can heal psoriasis when there's zero proof for it😉

thanks for the input🙂

Look, let's be honest and realistic here.
A forum dedicated to a condition that is "officially" incurable and whose true cause isn't even known has to deal with "unofficial" stuff.
If certain members—who pretend to be experts on everything and act like they "know it all," while the rest of us and the entire planet know
that this leads nowhere but wasting another day, and tomorrow, and so on... just spending 20-30 years trying to maintain a slightly better state with practically no results, it only leads to total disappointment and losing hope.
Why haven't the members who act like they "rule the situation" reacted ALARMINGLY to the mention of ivy?
Is anyone going to tell me ivy isn't toxic?
I'm calling on everyone here to honestly list everything you've tried during your long history with this illness. You'll see it's a mix of everything—normal stuff and completely insane stuff.
Why don't you guys react as strongly to the mention of corticosteroids? Because that's okay since they're registered and patented. Meanwhile, the same planet that lies every single second uses them on themselves and ruins their skin, and they won't even think about their liver until ten years later if they're lucky. I just wonder who those people are lying to. Are they lying to THEMSELVES or to OTHERS?
I can't lie to you if you won't let me, or conversely, I can only lie to you if you want me to.

You're telling me to tone down the ads and the campaign and write more about the disease and WAYS TO FIGHT IT ??????????????????????

I'm the only one writing about it realistically (even if you don't believe me), while everyone else writes about maintenance and keeping journals—especially now that the first two members are almost completely clear after not even a full month of use.
If I were just putting pure hormones in an ointment, I doubt it would work like this. Wouldn't it?

That's why, with a clear conscience, I'm calling for that same survey the respected member mentioned.

And I have one more question for the moderator. Are you also suffering from some serious or, God forbid, officially incurable disease?
I'm asking this "purely" hypothetically because I feel such a sense of arrogance and competence regarding US patients

Casey Miller9 said:Atopic dermatitis, neurodermatitis, and allergic dermatitis—it's all the same thing. Or what doctors call a "condition." And conditions are temporary, right?🙂
Of course we watch for allergens as much as possible. We overhauled our whole setup and he's doing a lot better. No more coughing fits or nebulizers since we cleared out the area rugs and swapped the plush furniture for leather chairs and other stuff. Just got his IgE levels back today to see the allergy severity. It's at 604.75. Should be between 0.00 and 200.00. A total disaster.😠 Doctors are useless because they can't find the root cause. Typical, isn't it?
The rash on his elbows is half the size it was when I posted those photos. It should clear up in two or three days since we're bathing him a lot and getting some sun. You're right, Robert Clark2, when the wind shifts, things get worse. That means the wind is carrying allergens. Called the clinic in Miami today about the biopsy. We can head in this Friday, but by then 80% of it will probably be gone, making the biopsy pointless anyway.👎 Regards.

Since there aren't any side effects with your kid, I suggest you keep applying it even after the rash clears. Just an idea. If we assume the underlying issue is still there, maybe continuing the application provides enough continuity—enough days of action—to slow down the next flare-up or weaken the intensity while it's still under the skin.
I don't think we have anything to lose, only to gain.
I'm asking everyone else here for suggestions, since this is the first time anyone is testing this ointment on this specific condition.

Willpower, faith, and hard work eventually pay off.

With faith in God,

Regards

Just checking in from my vacation so you guys know what's happening. I'm using dial-up right now and it's driving me crazy—it takes an hour just to read everything and type a reply...👎 )
After 18 days, here's the status... my head and ears are clear. You can still see those two spots above each ear if you look closely, but the rest is almost back to its natural color. It doesn't really itch, though I feel some minor irritation here and there, but I was expecting more. My chest is basically clear. Sometimes I look down and barely see anything; other times, a spot looks a bit redder. Hard to say, but overall things are good. (I'm at the beach naked and nobody asks me what's up with my patches—though it’s hard to see them through all this body hair I've got...🤣 ) Down below, things are slightly better than before, but just barely. I'm not at the finish line yet, and that's where the itching is worst despite washing daily...🤣 ) Anyway, progress has slowed down. It's moving in small steps now, but it's moving. Nothing is coming back or anything. All in all, I'm sticking to the ointment. I apologize to the members who asked for photos; I already explained that my patches are in sensitive areas and I wasn't going to photograph my head. That's why I'm writing this long update instead. Hope I'm not being annoying...😁 Just so you know, I'll probably call Michael Ramos3's dad tomorrow because I need more ointment, and since my colleague is in New York City, I'll grab it from him. Luckily, my company has been swamped with work in NYC lately. With this new batch, I expect to wrap up the therapy... or rather, hopefully.
Oh, and I'm also at the coast like "Me," swimming and tanning. No major reactions, but nothing spectacular happened in these three days of swimming to speed up recovery (Michael Ramos3 mentioned once that it would be like I wasn't even using the ointment). That's all from me. I'm pulling for everyone using this stuff—hope you all feel even better than I do...🙏

Words are just words.

The doctors at the clinic told me I can go back, saying it’s mostly just a mental game. But honestly, it really messes with my head when I start sweating on the job and getting frustrated while trying to get stuff done. If I actually manage to get fully healed, I don't even know how big of a party I'll have to throw to celebrate. 🙂

"silentheron25," just relax and chill out, as people say. You're on the right track for now, so don't let anything distract you.
Maybe starting work is better anyway; it might give your mind a break from obsessing over the condition and watching for results.
Nothing is going to change just because you show up to work every morning. You'll just have to wake up much earlier to shower and make sure you're on time. That'll probably be your only real issue.
As for that massive celebration once you're cured (God willing), I honestly think you have a HUGE problem figuring out how to pull that off. You're gonna need to invite a ton of women and stock up on plenty of good wine. I definitely can't help you with that particular dilemma.
Ha Ha 🙂 🙂 🙂🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Casey Miller9 said:Since we're talking about the balm, it flared up again on my elbows👎 , though it hasn't hit my neck or back yet🙏

It sucks hearing this from you, Casey Miller9, but please just stay persistent. Stick with the balm—you’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Let's hope whatever condition your kid is dealing with shares some common ground with psoriasis so the balm works the same way.
No one else can really know yet, because you're the first one willing to try using the balm on atopic dermatitis.
I'm praying the Lord rewards your courage if nothing else.

Just stay the course. Please.

Best,

silentheron25 said:This is just leading to more arguments between the skeptics and those of us who actually believe there’s a way out. If you don't believe it now, why bother believing anyone when it works for me, dragon100, and others? We could all be lying for all you know. Just wait until some big pharma company finally finds a "miracle cure" for total healing—until then, either accept this or don't even bother trying. I'm turning 25 today, which means I've dealt with this crap for nearly 20 years, with a few breaks here and there. Trust me, this isn't something I just "accept." This is a specific kind of hell that suffocates people, and if you've been dealing with it for 15 or 18 years, it's even worse. I don't care what's inside the bottle; I just care that it works. As for you eternal skeptics, even if someone actually found a cure, you'd probably still have doubts and questions anyway.

I completely agree.
To save everyone some time and unnecessary energy, I'm done arguing or commenting on this thread, unless someone starts making things personal or attacks my integrity (morally speaking, of course).

Chris Morgan67 said:I wouldn't know,🙂
I just want to know the ingredients. I know my way around herbs and generally understand how they work.

Also, how did your father come up with the formula for this balm? Did he stumble upon it by accident, or did he spend years testing different herbs?

No comment.

Psoriasis [PLEASE READ FIRST POST!] in Health · Jun 15, 2007

Chris Morgan67 said:I only drink teas when I am 100% sure what’s actually in them, usually sourced from trusted people close to me or major reputable brands. It’s the exact same thing with honey.
I haven't bought anything from that herbalist in Bihać and I don't plan to. As for Vipsogal, the label itself says it contains a corticosteroid... which is incredibly easy to verify online if you bother to look.
Even though that Dr. Višnjić claimed his cream was safe and steroid-free—he was lying.

Like I said, I wouldn't put anything on my skin if I didn't know the ingredients.
If you actually reveal the full formula without specific measurements, nobody would be able to replicate it themselves.
So, just think about it—would you or your father really want to give people 90% of a secret formula just for transparency?

Fine, fine. I'll post the ingredients for the balm.
But I'm asking again: how are you going to prove I'm not lying? You can run a chemical analysis and find the synthetic stuff, but there's no way for you to verify exactly which herbs I'm mixing into it.

Chris Morgan67 said:Sorry, ma'am, but I get the feeling YOU'RE angry at US because we're skeptical about your remedy.

How are we supposed to believe you're being honest when you mention God in every single post?

I mean, I deeply hope you are sincere, but it feels a little strange that you expect all of us to just take your word for it—that you have this miracle cure—based solely on what you say.
We don't know you, we don't know your father, we don't know what's actually in the remedy, and we have no idea how bad your father's psoriasis actually was.

All we have is your word that it works, and with all due respect, that isn't enough to convince me that anything actually works.
Because look, people lie for their own gain... every hour, every second, all over the globe.

THANKS for finally being honest and laying your cards on the table.

I'm not angry at all. If I were the type to get angry, I wouldn't be doing this in the first place.
I'm not mad that you're skeptical. Skepticism includes a certain level of positive thinking too. Honestly, your stance pleased me. What I can't wrap my head around is the attitude that it doesn't work 100% without even trying it—forming an opinion based solely on the fact that people lie all over the planet every day, just like you said.
If that's how you feel, then just say so.
People have been lying since the dawn of time, sure, I agree, but even today, we trust each other to some degree. Do you only trust people you know personally?
You were only imprecise in one part: "I deeply hope you are sincere." If you're hoping, does that mean you believe? For me, those two things are pretty much inseparable.

I don't expect you to believe me just because I mention God. If I did, I'd have to stop believing people who don't mention Him, and I don't do that. If you have the right to not mention Him, then I have the right to mention Him. These are personal matters, and I don't think they should be mixed up with anything else.

Did you personally know the manufacturer of every single product you've ever used? Did they suffer from psoriasis too? Did you know them during their illness so you could see how bad their condition actually was?

Millions of people lie every day, yet they drink Coca-Cola without knowing its secret ingredients. When you take tea from someone, how do you know it's exactly what they claim it is? Do you put the tea through independent lab testing first? What about honey? Or that herbal remedy from Bihać? Did everyone know exactly what was in Vipsogal from the start?
This kind of skepticism never ends (just like unrealistic optimism).

Define what it would take to convince you that this works.
My thought? Just try it, and then judge based on your own experience.

Again, I apologize if anyone thought I was angry.

rapidpanther41 said:urbangull says: Look at the post.
You claim no other medication has a lasting effect. Are you trying to say this balm actually has that potential, while simultaneously saying we can use it as much as we want? Where is this "lasting effect"? Can you send some photos of your father, before and after using the balm? I don't mean to be rude, but I have faith in God; I also need some faith in this balm.
I completely agree. I don't know how long they'll keep insisting this is a cure for psoriasis, but I know the disappointments will only get worse for those who try it. Faith and God have nothing to do with it—at least not in my belief.

I'm sticking to my guns that this is a permanent cure because I SEE the results almost every single day over the last few years. What am I supposed to do, just sit here with what I have and stay quiet? Well, my conscience won't let me.

And I’d love for you all to explain exactly what you are basing your insistence on when you claim this is NOT a cure for psoriasis. Have you already used it and had it fail, or do you just know someone else who did?

Just say it publicly and clearly: "I THINK Michael Ramos3 is a fraud and is LYING with every word he speaks."

That's your opinion, but state it openly without beating around the bush. Don't try to force other forum members to share your view just to validate your own stance.

Be honest if you're so certain. Say that you will never take the balm from me. NEVER. Even if it gets registered and patented, it’s still my balm—someone else would just be MANUFACTURED it.

Now, here's what I think. I think you aren't actually that convinced (since you have no proof) that the balm does nothing. Instead, you're just waiting for dragon100 to write in three months that his skin is clear again, and then "I," "Gregory Mendoza3," and "Casey Miller9" (God willing) and others will follow suit. Then you'll finally voice your opinion, claiming it's okay now because it's "natural" or "mild," or you'll try it because you've already tried thousands of other things. And even when you've been clear for a year (God willing), you still won't publicly say, "THIS WORKS." You'll just say it helped a little, or blame other factors—that the psoriasis just went away on its own, maybe because you were at the beach, or because you drank filtered water, or used a specific aftershave that probably influenced it.
I'm writing this based on seven years of experience.

And that's a fine enough opinion, provided you present it straight, without the fluff.

Let's wait for more opinions to come in before we talk based on actual experience.

Unless, of course, you already BELIEVE that "dragon100" is lying about nearly being cleared, and that he's just part of my crew working together to steal your last dollar.

Even that would be a fair way to think, and it wouldn't even bother me, BUT JUST SAY IT ONCE AND FOR ALL.

I’ve been lurking on this Krstarica forum, and if I can say it without being rude, it’s pretty serious.
Out of five pages, three are just two members bickering, and the other two are debates about salt intake and the Dead Sea.
I already reached out to the moderator, who made it clear upfront: if I start publicly pushing unregistered herbs, teas, or salves, I’m out. So, I haven't even officially introduced myself yet.
Let me reiterate what I said before.
"Your" forum is one of the largest, most detailed, open, progressive, and serious forums in our language.
That’s thanks to the members, so thanks to them.
That’s why I decided to join this forum for the first time. As things stand—since my English is pretty weak—I don't see any other forum worth participating in right now.
Sorry, I actually signed up for the www.mycity.com forum the same day, but the moderator wiped my account after a few posts because apparently, I was violating "information laws."

Where is this "lasting effect" then? Can you send some photos of your father, before and after using the balm? I don't mean to be rude, but I have faith in God, and I need to find some faith in this balm too.😕 😎

- Experience shows that no other medication provides a permanent fix—you all know that better than I do. I am constantly trying to explain that this balm *does* have a lasting effect (my father hasn't had a single trace of it for seven years), and plenty of others who used it feel the same way.
- When I say you can use it as much as you want, I mean use it as long as there is a need for it. Nobody has ever reported needing to keep applying it after being Healed just because they fell in love with the scent or got used to sleeping with it on.
- Regarding photos, I could send current pictures of my father, though I doubt he'd agree to it, and I honestly don't have the old ones. Back in 1999, if he knew by 2000 he would be permanently Healed, he might have actually thought to take detailed photos to show people one day.
- I'm glad you mentioned your faith in God, because I have mine too. As for faith in my balm, I really can't help you there; I don't know where to find "faith" to just hand it over to you. There's an old saying: "Believe it or don't." There is no third option. So, I don't think you need my father's photos, past or present, to decide whether to believe in the balm.

I'll say it one more time:

With faith in God, it will happen.
All the best from God.

Robert Clark2 said:I can't help but say a few words to Michael Ramos3.
You seem to think psoriasis is an incurable disease that can only be managed briefly.
Where do you get the nerve to claim someone will be Healed when mainstream medicine hasn't achieved that yet?
Psoriasis isn't treated on the outside; it’s treated from the inside.
If you just stop it from showing up on the skin, you're inevitably pushing it deeper inside, where it attacks other organs—starting with the joints and moving down the line.
Honestly, more than anything, I want the people on this forum who use your balm to be Healed.
The real question is whether someone is going to be misled, and we'll see who that turns out to be.
I’ve been misled many times thinking I finally beat this curse, but unfortunately, I haven't. It’s just been disappointment and renewed stress. For 37 years now, my psoriasis and I have been playing a game where it holds all the cards.
My case is pretty severe, similar to what Gregory Mendoza3 deals with, but I've gotten used to the "eruptions," as Gregory Mendoza3 calls them. They're actually weakening on their own now, and I treat them with St. John's Wort oil, calendula cream, and white petroleum jelly.
If you're so certain about what you're saying, post it on the Krstarica forum and let's see how many people praise you or shut you down. Those who used your balm.
I don't want to influence anyone on this forum to use your balm or not; that's their call. As the old saying goes, "Every man is the architect of his own fortune; however he builds it, that is how it will serve him." Interpret health however you want.

Dear Mr. Robert Clark2.

Understand that psoriasis is a Healed condition, and that looks permanent (my father hasn't had it for 7 years, despite facing heavy stress and eating/drinking everything he used to avoid).

The courage to say this comes from the fact that I have eyes. I see my own father, and for the last 7 years, I've seen others too. I am simply witnessing what I see. Mainstream medicine is frankly in huge trouble, and not just with psoriasis.
In most Western countries, homeopathy has legally become an "official" branch of medicine. I’m asking you: what defines "official"? Even things like polio or tuberculosis were once officially considered "incurable" diseases, but 500 years have passed and cures were found in the meantime.
Whether psoriasis is treated from the outside or the inside—forgive me, but neither you nor I truly knows. I don't know how my balm works, what it acts upon, or if it works internally too; that's not something even I or my father knows. Maybe we'll find out one day when it becomes an "officially tested drug by a major corporation."
Does it just remove visible marks and push the psoriasis inward? I'll answer you once you actually define psoriasis, and then you'll be 70% of the way toward its "medically official" treatment. Let's just assume for a second that it ONLY removes the visible part of the psoriasis permanently, and that it's completely natural and costs less than my monthly internet bill. I think that alone is enough.

Whether you believe what I'm writing is your choice. I suspect you're at least a little intrigued, but you're waiting for the first results—waiting for someone else to try it instead of you. That's fine by me. I know you've probably tried a thousand "safe" remedies only to be disappointed, just like my father was during his 35 years with psoriasis. But I'm asking you because you won't try the 1,001st remedy. If your answer is NO, then the psoriasis has won the match. If your answer is YES, then be patient a little longer until the decisive members of this forum share their experiences. Then, feel free to get the balm. And when you are fully Healed by the end of this year, I'll personally invite myself to your beach house for summer vacation.

I respect both your life experiences and the years you've spent dealing with this condition. That’s why I'm asking you—as someone who looks up to you like a father figure—please don't hold it against me if I've said anything to upset you.

With faith in God,

urbangull said:To be honest, I'm right there with you. I’m pretty skeptical about this kind of stuff because nothing I’ve tried actually works, especially when it’s plant-based.
So sorry, Michael Ramos3, but I’m one of those people who just doesn't have much faith in it.

There's no need to apologize to me for not believing in my balm. I completely get it. Like I said before, my father dealt with psoriasis for over 30 years; he tried everything under the sun and went through all kinds of phases.
Just check the forum daily and eventually, you'll start to trust the process. We already have one member, copperviper102, reaching out with great results, though he still has a little ways to go before he's finished. Let's wait for others like silentheron25 and Gregory Mendoza3 to post their experiences too. Just remember, it takes 25-30 days to see the first signs of improvement.
One thing I don't get is why people stick to 100% chemical products that you know are destroying your healthy skin, knowing full well they offer no permanent fix. Why bother? How long are you going to keep using them? Until your skin is ruined, or until you catch some other disease, God forbid? You believe in those and use them, but for my plant-based stuff, I don't know what it's going to take for you to believe.
My only fear is that even with our most decisive member already seeing effects, some of you won't find it convincing even after 30 satisfied members join in, and you'll just keep using poisons.
We just need to be patient. What's one or three months compared to 30 years, or a lifetime, God forbid?

With faith in God

I feel bad that the balm didn't work better for you, but honestly, that was expected. Millions of people all over the US deal with psoriasis, and let's be real—nobody's getting cured in just 14 days by some local folk remedy.

I don't believe I've insulted anyone on this forum so far, so I expect the same courtesy in return. That’s my take on the rules here. You're entitled to your own opinions and expectations, and you can share them, but your recent comment labeling this as "snake oil" is an insult to me and to everyone else actually using it.

So, I'm asking for a little dignity, basic manners, and some self-control when you talk to others.

silentheron25 said:Honestly, I can't be as happy as you yet. After 9 days, the results are barely noticeable—especially on my hands, and then my back, legs, and stomach. It still itches constantly, though just a little bit. The patches have thinned out, but the redness is way too obvious. I've got 11 days left of vacation, and if this stuff doesn't clear up or at least improve significantly by then, it’s going to be a disaster. By the way, does anyone have experience with Zorac gel? My doctor recommended it.

Whoa, everyone, slow down. I already said that copperviper102 achieved the fastest results we've seen so far; we can't expect everyone to follow that exact timeline. You need to apply the balm for 25-30 days before you see any real progress. That slight itching you're feeling is actually a good sign, even if it isn't always the case.

So just take it easy and be patient for a little longer.

copperviper102 said:Back again after the weekend—a bit late because work was hectic yesterday and I didn't have time to write. It's been 12 days since I started using the balm, and honestly, I’m extremely happy. To get straight to the point, here’s the status: my scalp is completely clear. There are just two tiny patches left that you practically have to hunt for to even see them (the third one is totally gone). Behind my ears, everything is clean too, though the skin tone isn't quite back to its natural shade yet; it looks a little darker, though I'm not sure why. Mostly, you'd only notice if you were looking closely. My ears have also tightened up and the color has mostly returned to normal there. On my chest, the patch is almost entirely gone, and I think it's only a matter of days before it vanishes completely 🙂. Finally, I'm seeing real changes down below, and they are massive 🙏. What can I say? It's phenomenal, and my "pride and joy" finally looks like it should instead of some red spot. The skin is finally how it's supposed to be (it's hard to be more specific without getting vulgar 😬), and for the first time in a long while, I don't hate looking down. I forgot to mention that I went to a tanning salon on Friday and again yesterday, and had zero issues (maybe that helped, who knows?). I checked with Michael Ramos3 first to see if it was okay, and he said if you weren't having problems before, you won't have them while using the balm. So, I tried it and I'm still alive... 😁 The only thing is my eyelid skin darkened slightly because I had a small spot there that I'm also treating with the balm. Not sure what it is, so I'm using a regular cream for now and we'll see. I'm planning to hit the tanning salon tomorrow, so I'll see how my eyelid reacts before deciding whether to keep going. As you can see, almost all my patches are gone, so my skin function and appearance are pretty much back. Now the question is when am I done? I've had this constant, mild itching everywhere for a few days now, but it's not unbearable. Is that enough, or should the itching last longer? I don't know—I'll check with Michael Ramos3. I'll definitely keep using the balm for a few more days, maybe longer. My only issue is I'm running low on the balm, so I might need to order another pack if this drags on. We'll see, as the blind people say... 🤣

Thank God for these kinds of results.

You might be one of the people who achieved the fastest results (12 days).
That just proves there are no set rules; every body determines its own pace (regardless of how bad things looked at the start).

Just stay persistent for a little longer until you reach total Healed status.

And then, for the first year, you'll be a bit unsure if it comes back. The second year, you'll worry a little less, the third year even less, and hopefully, we'll keep going like that until we meet the Lord.

With faith in God, we look forward to more results.

silentheron25 said:Personally, I think it’s actually a bit selfish to have kids just because society says we "have" to. I have different views than most, so don't get too worked up, but here's my take: I don't plan on having children because of psoriasis, but also because I just don't see myself as a parent. It's better not to have them at all than to bring someone into this world only for them to deal with their own set of struggles because of who I am. Passing down these genes, knowing you'll likely hand off this psoriasis burden to some kid down the line, doesn't sit right with me. I know how hard it was when I was younger, and seeing someone else live through it again is tough since it's genetic. If I ever do have kids, I'll probably adopt; there are plenty of kids out there waiting for help, and bringing new ones into the world feels a bit selfish right now, especially when people are struggling daily just for basics like food, water, or dealing with the consequences of HIV, which I'm allergic to. It isn't simple. You shouldn't have kids only to pile more misery on them. That's just my stance... hope that doesn't get me canceled, jadesailor14 😁 👍
The balm works, though it's pretty slow and the redness is still there. I'll manage. It'll get better every day.

Let's save this heavy topic for when you are finally Healed from psoriasis. I bet everything will feel different then.

Regards

Luckily, I don't have nearly as much as you do. My patches are way fewer and less intense, so I can't even imagine how bad it is for you. Fingers crossed that your "P" clears up fast and stays gone. It's been 5 days since I started using the balm and I'm satisfied so far. Ever since they "discovered" olive oil for me, I've been using it to help wipe off the balm (which some people described as resin/tar), so I don't have to scrub so hard to get everything off. Current results: I have 3 spots on my head plus ears (inside and around them). One is very visible and showing the best effect so far. Most of the redness there is gone, though it doesn't itch right now. The other two aren't super obvious, but seem okay. Inside my ears, it's completely cleared up and feels smooth to the touch again—no redness there either. Behind my ears is also much better; there's still a spot, but it isn't red anymore... it just looks like a dark skin tone now (probably from the balm because I didn't wash it off well enough 😘 ; it's a bit hard to rub there because it hurts slightly, but nothing major). On my chest, the patch hasn't shrunk yet, but the color changed, or at least that's my impression. It seems like a lighter red now (it was a much brighter red the day before yesterday and yesterday). My only issue is down by the genitals; it's hard to apply the balm there and even harder to wash off. It's still very red there, though I feel like it might be slightly better today... the only time I really feel the problem is down there... just this constant nagging ache and tension 😈 . Nivea is fine, but I think I'll actually have to start using something else, especially for down there, because it doesn't absorb well and I probably won't finish the tube before then. For my head and chest, it works, but for my ears, I use Chicago Balm. That's all from me. Cheers to the group. 🤣

Bravo, just stay strong. Think about where you'll be in 25 days. Feel free to apply it to your ears and nails too if you need to.

God bless
