Patient's question:
Today I accompanied my friend to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said she has psoriasis. Could you please tell me what medications the doctor can prescribe for this condition? My friend and his family are very anxious right now, and he is particularly worried about his illness. He hopes the doctor can provide a treatment method.Doctor's answer:
Currently, for this psoriasis, symptomatic treatment is commonly used, with symptom relief as the primary goal. This disease is also prone to recurrence. Although there are some medications for clinical diagnosis, there is still a lack of specific treatments, making it difficult to completely cure. Generally, one can consider using some tar preparations, corticosteroid preparations, and immunostabilizing preparations, among others.In addition to understanding the treatment, it is also important to avoid smoking and drinking beer, not staying up late, and not eating spicy or fried foods. Besides avoiding sun exposure and skin injuries, it is also necessary to take care to prevent colds and upper respiratory infections.
