Herbal treatment review for psoriasis - Efforts toward complete cure

Three years ago, I suffered immensely from psoriasis. There are various causes for psoriasis, but for me, lifestyle habits that irritate the skin and immune system issues, which are the root of all diseases, seemed to be the main causes. When I visited the dermatologist, I was told I had psoriasis symptoms and was prescribed medication, but I didn't see much improvement, so I continued traditional Korean medicine treatments to boost my immune system for over a year. I also ate a lot of foods that enhance immune cells, such as ginger and garlic, and consistently took supplements like omega-3 and vitamin D, which help improve blood circulation overall.

Three years ago, I developed psoriasis. Environmentally, there was COVID-19, and I tend to be neat, so I frequently take showers and wash myself. There are various causes for psoriasis, but it is said that skin irritation or a broken skin barrier can lead to psoriasis. There are many reasons for losing skin balance, but for me, the primary cause of most diseases, including psoriasis, was a weakened immune system. At first, I thought it was eczema, so I bought medication from a pharmacy and applied it, but because I didn't identify the exact cause early and treat it properly, the symptoms worsened. The red, blotchy areas became more severe, with the formation of scales and itching, making normal life impossible.

When I went to the dermatology clinic, I was told I had psoriasis symptoms and was prescribed medication, but applying it did not significantly improve the psoriasis symptoms. So, I visited my usual oriental medicine clinic for consultation, and I was told that if left untreated, psoriasis would not heal even after 10 years, so I continued herbal treatment aimed at boosting overall immunity for over a year.

A person I know told me that if the skin becomes excessively alkaline, psoriasis symptoms can occur, so I used skincare products with a slightly acidic pH. I also ate a lot of ginger and garlic, which boost immune cells, and consistently took supplements like omega-3 and vitamin D to promote healthy blood circulation overall. I tried all possible methods, but treating psoriasis turned out to be much more difficult than I expected. Like with any illness, prevention before it occurs seems to be the best answer. During the hot summer months, especially, take good care of your health.
