Could you please advice me. Thanks and warm Regards Jagannathan
Hello, palmoplantar psoriasis disrupting the day to day functioning is an indication for methotrexate therapy, i would like you to visit your dermatologist for evaluation of the extent and severity, to be able to start the treatment accordingly. Psoriasis is a chronic relapsing condition, relapses are common, so, once the lesions get resolved, apply bland emollient like moisture soft cream on the palms and soles daily and precipitating factors, if any, should be avoided. ThanksTake care
