The only thing that works for me is traditional chinese medicine. My TCM doctor is very experienced, the first time he saw my symptoms, he said I just need to keep my body cooling (in terms of TCM) then the body will have the right environment to heal it by itself. More plain water, sleep early, lots of fibre (others like carbo/protein just keep them limited), take a lot of cooling foods (cincau/ coconut water/ herbal tea/ small bittergourd juice). After 6 months of good practice and intake of his medicine, I only have some tiny/thin scales left on my scalp. (no other body parts, it has been so long since I face serious itchiness) Also, I can now gain some body weight (before this, I was turning so skinny, no matter how I eat last time, i could not gain weight).

*No, I don't rely on topical stuffs like creams/ointment/steroid/soap, they are worthless.

I have it for like 5 to 6 years. I was an active member of all major psoriasis discussion boards and tried any possible method with no significant results. Now, I don't even need to visit those forums. TCM = traditional chinese medicine.

Fellow psoriasis people, don't give up. I was mentally stressed last time also, could not accept it.
For my case, its similar like normal people who sleep very late and wake up with significant dandruff. Its like you disrupt the detox process of the liver (liver starts to work b4 12am) and you induce heatiness to your other organs as well. Last time, I stayed with my PC till extremely late then I got this skin disease (it started with scalp, spread to other areas).

Hey guys, it has been a while and I'm still clear

It has been quite some time since I posted here. I am not sure if the Psoriasis sufferers are still visiting this thread.

TCM stopped working for me after a year or so and it was a hassle. I consistently had flare-ups and it was never completely gone.

In the past two years, I have been treating it with helminthic therapy (google it, it is a "fringe" treatment approach that is not commercializable) with great successes. Psoriasis (or maybe seborrheic dermatitis) that I used to suffer from is completely/100% cleared with zero flare-ups for two years now and no diet restrictions are needed. More importantly, there is absolutely no need to apply anything topical (shampoos, creams, ointments) to the scalp and skin.
