So a regular treatment is required for this.Treatment options include Ointment and creams containing coal tar, dithranol (anthralin), corticosteroids like desoximetasone (Topicort), vitamin D3 analogues (for example, calcipotriol), and retinoids, Psoralen+UVA and PUVB therapy. Over time, psoriasis can become resistant to a specific therapy. Treatments may be periodically changed to prevent resistance developing (tachyphylaxis) and to reduce the chance of adverse reactions occurring.
i have this condition for over a year and a half and i have seen 3 dermatologist that said that i have Psoriasis and gave me Clobetasol propionate ointment 0.05%, i used it for 3 weeks but it didn't help.
i saw a pharmacist that said that the peels in my skin are too soft to be a Psoriasis and diagnose my condition as an Eczema and gave me a Mometasone (furoate): Ointment/Cream 1mg/g (0.1%).
this didn't help either
please help me..

Itchy rash is particularly noticeable on face and scalp, neck, inside of elbows, behind knees, and buttocks.Treatment is with a Corticosteroid ointment which will reduce the inflammation.
But with your history of Psoriasis, it would likely be an extension of that.These measures area must to reduce the recurrence rate.There are many treatments available but because of its chronic recurrent nature psoriasis is a challenge to treat.
It is often considered to be a variant of pustular psoriasis and classified as a seperate entity.Steroids, external calcipotriol are some of treatment modalities.
Do consult your doc.Best wishes.
Medicated creams and ointments applied directly to psoriatic plaques can help reduce inflammation, remove built-up scale, reduce skin turn over, and clear affected skin of plaques. Ointment and creams containing coal tar, dithranol (anthralin), corticosteroids like desoximetasone (Topicort), vitamin D3 analogues (for example, calcipotriol), and retinoids are routinely used.

Topical therapy for psoriasis includes corticosteroids, tazarotene, anthralin, calcipotriol/calcipotriene and tars; some medicated shampoos are quite effective for treating scalp psoriasis against prescription. UV therapy is also useful.
Besides these treatment options, regular exercises, nutritious diet and relaxation techniques will help to relieve stress and improve health, and contribute a lot in treating psoriasis. I suggest you to consult dermatologist. Take care and regards.
so... what am i doing? pursuing corticosteroids and calcipotriol? or maybe try just calcipotriol on its own to begin with?
Hello,
The treatment of pityraisis rubra pilaris consists mainly of topical corticosteroids,calcipotriol,emollients,extracorporeal photochemotherapy and oral medications like retinoids,antimetaboiltes,immunosuppressants and vitamins.
I sincerely suggest you to discuss these treatment options with your dermatologist.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or in case you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
External application of calcipotriol is supposed to be effective if confirmed.
Apart from that, topical medications like emollients, creams containing coal tar, dithranol (anthralin), corticosteroids like desoximetasone (Topicort), fluocinonide, vitamin D3 analogues (for example, calcipotriol), and retinoids have been routinely used. Phototherapy containing UV A has also been employed. But it is usually seen that psoriasis can become resistant to a specific therapy. Treatments may be periodically changed to prevent resistance developing.
