Psoriasis [PLEASE READ FIRST POST!] in Health ·
Hi everyone

Here’s what I tried:
Since none of the various creams I've used lately were doing anything, and my psoriasis was spreading all over my body, I decided to try Betnovate ointment.
The Betnovate lotion actually worked wonders for me—it clears up the scaling on my scalp in about two days, though they eventually come back after a while. It never crossed my mind to try the ointment version, though. I figured the lotion formula might have some ointment properties and would work similarly on my skin. Obviously, it wasn't as potent as it was on my head, but it still had a positive effect. I stayed patient, assuming the results were just slower because of how much surface area this thing has covered. I was happy at first because the scales fell off, the sores started closing up, and everything looked significantly less ugly than before. The problem is that by the end of the third week, progress slowed down so much that I feel like it stopped working. Maybe that's because the medication is only recommended for up to three weeks of use. So, I need to stop soon or scale back to once a day (I was applying it twice daily). I'm stuck on what to do next and how to fix my skin tone; the skin where the scales used to be is darker now, and even in spots where it looks healed, the skin is slightly raised. How do I get rid of that? I could use some advice. Personally, I think sunlight might help, but I still have a month and a half until my vacation, and I don't want a flare-up right before then. If anyone has ideas or experience with this, please let me know. I feel like I'm finally getting closest to a temporary cure for the first time in a year.
Some people suggested Hydrocyclone because it's helped them clear up various skin issues, but I doubt they were dealing with psoriasis since its effectiveness doesn't mention it specifically. I'm not looking to just smear random stuff on myself, which is why I'm asking you guys.
Also, if someone could tell me more about Place and where to find it, since I'm currently in North Mexico. When I first read about it, I thought it was an ointment, but online it looks like capsules that cost about $28. Is a specific diet required with it?

Thanks in advance

I’ve been dealing with psoriasis for about ten years now, just like most people on here. I haven't found a single doctor who actually knows what they're doing, except for one specialist I saw in North Mexico four years ago. He claimed he "cured" me, but we'll see about that.👍
My mom was vacationing at the coast recently and ran into a woman selling those little topical patches. She picked up two of them for me as a trial run, about five bucks each. I tested one out on my thigh just to see if they actually worked. Honestly, for the last four years, I’ve dealt with this recurring issue that flares up occasionally, but it only ever hits that specific spot. It usually clears up after a couple of days, but it keeps coming back right there.
I’ve tried placing an order a couple of times now, but the lady on the phone keeps telling me there aren't any direct bus routes from North Mexico to our area—only service to Washington, D.C. or New York City, both of which are way too far out of my way. I've been chewing on this for a while. I'm not trying to run an ad for anyone here, but if anyone wants the full rundown, just shoot me a message.

I have two URGENT questions:
I’m looking for information on that snake venom you guys were talking about earlier. What exactly is it called? Does anyone know where or how I can get my hands on some? Also, if anyone has a direct link to that video showing the kid getting those injections, please send it over.

Has anyone ever used that German cream, TOPISOLON? A few people asked me if I wanted them to pick some up for me, but I’m on the fence. I've honestly never heard of it or seen it before, so I have no clue what it actually does. They mentioned it's supposed to be for psoriasis, but I don't know.

I need someone to answer these two questions ASAP. I’ve got a deadline by the day after tomorrow to let them know whether I'm pulling the trigger on this purchase or not.

I’ve been wanting to say this for a while, but I haven't quite had the nerve to speak up until now—even if it's just online.

Love you guys. You're the best.👍👍🙏👍

Hey.

I’ve been dealing with psoriasis for over a decade now, and honestly, it just keeps getting worse. I’ve cycled through countless creams, but if I’m being blunt, nothing has actually worked. The only thing that offers any relief is salicylic acid, but that’s strictly for my scalp. I agree that sunlight and trips to the coast are the best remedies, but that’s a temporary fix—once summer ends, everything flares right back up. Standard stuff like Zorac hasn't done a thing for me, and neither did Freederm, which I ordered online. My last attempt was that Colostrum-Dermacell cream from that Swiss brand, but again, zero results. Total waste of money. The only thing I haven't tried yet is those natural herbal creams made by local healers, like the woman you mentioned. I've seen people on various online boards claiming those homemade remedies actually helped their skin, so could you pass along her contact info? Since I'm based in North Mexico, maybe I can get in touch and have those bottles sent over. If I could just get my skin clear for even a few months, it would be a massive win.
