psorisis question

hello,

i was wondering if any of you knew of good at home remedies or creams that helped with psorisis?  I am now 13 weeks pregnant and do not want to be using a steriod cream.  Tanning always worked in the past for me but i can go go into a tanning booth while pregnant.  I have heard that avocado oil works wonders and just checking to see if anyone has advice.

I do not have bad psorisis, just smalls ones on my belly and back that form from heat and stress.

Thanks,
Leigh

I can definitely understand your situation. Skin diseases seem to be on the back burner. I guess they think that if it doesn't kill you, they don't need to work on a reasonable effective treatment. I find it unbelievable, that technology is so advanced,  they can perform heart valve transplants through a small incision, yet they can't cure a rash!
I really believe that there is a cure, but they make more money by dispensing worthless treatments.
I know childbirth can cause changes in your body. But they can also disappear as fast as they came.
Stress and anxiety make your condition much worse.

I have a friend with psoriasis and he uses red clover. He also uses st jhons wort for stress.
I would check with your doctor about using anything like that
