I'm interested in doing float-therapy where you get in a sensory deprivation pod. Do you think it's safe for psoriatic skin lesions?

Question about plaques: Is it best to leave them alone or to pull the excess skin off? I'm healing from biologics and they sometimes get itchy or they come off while scrubbing in the shower.

What is a good diet to follow for P and PSA? I hear gluten free is the way to go. Anyone have anything that works for them?

I took my first dose of biologics two days ago and I can already see and feel a difference. My plaques have calmed down a bit.

Ugh stress problems. I'm trying to finish my bachelor's degree, work full-time and balance my personal life. I got married in February 2017 but found out in March my partner was having an affair for four months before the wedding. Then P appeared.

I just took my first dose of biologics. I'm hoping for some good results. I started showing psoriatic symptoms about 7 months ago but the worst is the arthritis and the scalp dermititis. Anyone have good results on the stuff?
