Psoriasis is a disease affecting millions of Americans today. This skin condition occurs when fawlty signals from the immune system cause an increase in skin cell production. A normal skin cell will mature and slough off in about a month, but in cases of Psoriasis, these cells mature in a few days and build up, causing lesions. The most common form, plaque Psoriasis, occurs when the excess of cells build up and form red lesions that are covered in white scales. There are four additional forms of Psoriasis: guttate, inverse, pustular and erythrodermic.
This disease is not contagious and can present in mild to severe cases on various areas of skin. The cause is undetermined and there is no known cure for sufferers. Outbreaks can be triggered (it is thought) by stress, injury, diet, weather and even sunburns. Every case is different, so what triggers and outbreak in one individual may not bother another.
So what are these millions of people with Psoriasis to do? Again, Psoriasis affects everyone differently, and treatments can vary from person to person. Camouflaging and covering up lesions help many people hide their flare ups, which can be embarrasing to deal with. A typical treatment is a topical cream applied directly to the skin. These can help relieve the itching associated with the lesions and clear up the skin for a period of time. These lotions should contain gentle moisturizers, essential oils, emollients and PH balancers to help skin feel smoother and promote healing. A thick layer of lotion, with some plastic wrap overnight can help loosen plaque enough to wash it away. Even a soak in the bath for 10-15 minutes can help plaque to be toweled off.
For current sufferers, a new FDA approved formula has been proven to soothe and relieve symptoms of Psoriasis. With Vitamin E, Tea Tree Oil and Palm Oil, this Psoriasis cream can help milions of people. This unique formula not only soothes and moisturizes your skin, but its active ingredient also helps control the scaling and flaking associated with Psoriasis to help your skin to heal naturally.
