What is a good treatment to alleviate Psoriasis?
I know someone who has it on the bottom of her feet, making it so painful to walk. She uses A&D to relieve it, but is there anything available that can come as close to a cure as possible?

answered Dec 04, 2009 at 06:31PMAs with any cream, irritation is possible, most unlikely since those are the symptoms hydro-cortisone usually alleviates. I recommend that they should try a small amount on a small area at first.-
Thank you so much! I'll relay this info to my friend, who will hopefully reap the benefits of this cream.Beth L. Gainer commented Dec 04, 2009 at 09:43PM

Thanks for your prompt response! One question: does the hydro-cortisone 1% or 2% cause any adverse physical effects like burning or dryness because my friend's feet are very raw from the psoriasis. If there aren't adverse physical effects, that would be wonderful!!
