Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition characterized by the rapid production of skin cells, leading to red, scaly patches on the skin. Although the disease is not contagious, it can appear at any age, with most cases starting during young adulthood. There is no cure for psoriasis, and treatments are focused on reducing inflammation and scaling.

Symptoms of psoriasis
The most common form, known as psoriasis vulgaris, typically presents with the following symptoms:
- Clearly defined patches of red or white skin, often covered with a silver or white scaly layer.
- Itching or painful patches.
- Pus-filled blisters that may form on top of the affected areas.
Psoriasis vulgaris can occur anywhere on the body, but it is frequently seen on the knees, elbows, and lower back. Other types of psoriasis include:
- Psoriasis capitis: Characterized by severe scaling of the scalp.
- Inverse psoriasis: Red lesions found in skin folds.
- Guttate psoriasis: Small, drop-shaped spots scattered across the body.
How to treat psoriasis
Treatment primarily aims to reduce skin inflammation. Commonly, psoriasis is managed with topical creams or ointments containing corticosteroids, such as betamethasone, which help to calm the skin and alleviate symptoms like itching, redness, and scaling. Other effective treatments include calcipotriol and other Vitamin D analogues. In more severe cases, doctors may prescribe antibiotics such as ciclosporin or other oral anti-inflammatory medications.

I only give 4 stars because of delivery time which maybe out of your control. But delivery of 4 days let's you down, it should be next day. Certain medication needs to be started ASAP. I took it anyway but I was healing . But the doctor side was really quick .

The NHS kept refusing me a previous prescribed medication which worked exceedingly well for a past medical issue that unfortunately came back. This medication helped me to get on with my life with very few side effects. After 3 years of being made to jump through hoops by the NHS and getting nowhere, I decided to use Doctoronline to buy the aforementioned medication from their website. Even though it cost me more than a standard prescription charge, it was well worth the money to feel better again. Now I feel more happy and have less pain and symptoms. Thank you for a fantastic service!
