The Key To Psoriasis Control

Psoriasis is a complex interaction involving several factors and/or conditions. Balancing those factors which in the past have influenced your psoriasis will help to control or manage your psoriasis. The successful treatment of psoriasis includes many aspects of skin care. Anything that creates changes in the body or in the skin can have an impact psoriasis and its treatment. An essential method to improve psoriasis can be found in basic lifestyle treatment changes.

Understanding Psoriasis

To effectively treat psoriasis we must begin with an understanding of what psoriasis is. The word Psoriasis gets its name from the Greek word psōra meaning "itch," Psoriasis is a re-occurring, non-contagious skin condition which is characterized by areas of inflamed lesions covered with silvery-white scabs of dead skin. As a result, itchy, scaly red patches appear, often on the elbows, hands, feet, and scalp, but they can show up on other parts of your body.

In normal skin conditions, new skin cells take about a month or so to move from the deepest skin layer where they're produced, to the surface where they die and flake off. With psoriasis, the entire skin cell life cycle is accelerated and this process is completed in only a few days. Because the body can't shed old skin as rapidly as new cells are rising to the surface, raised patches of dead skin accumulate on the arms, back, chest, elbows, legs, nails, folds between the buttocks, and scalp.

Stress Can Cause Psoriasis

Scientists have long sought to learn whether and how stress can lead to skin problems. A new study in mice shows that a stress-triggered hormone could worsen or even cause skin disorders like psoriasis.

The scientists found that blocking the hormone called glucocorticoid—which increases in stressful times—resulted in better skin.

Understanding how glucocorticoids work could help scientists come up with ways to prevent human skin problems triggered by psychological stress, said lead researcher Kenneth Feingold of the Veterans Affairs Medical Center, San Francisco and the University of California at San Francisco.

Stress can be an initiating symptom of psoriasis. Stress may aslo contribute to a worsening of existing lesions. Just the fact of having psoriasis is, in itself, psychologically and emotionally stressful. Lack of understanding by spouse, parents, children, other family members, friends, and co-workers can add another level of stress. Controlling stress is a powerful treatment in controlling psoriasis.

What Triggers the Occurence of Psoriasis?

Current research indicates that a biochemical stimulus triggers an abnormally accelerated skin growth, which in turn cause the formation of psoriasis lesions. Heredity also plays a role in the development of psoriasis. Psoriasis is believed to be a disorder of the immune system. The T cell, a white blood cell, normally works to fight off infection and disease. Scientists believe that having an abnormal immune system can cause abnormal activity by T cells in the skin. These abnormally active T cells cause skin inflammation and increased cell production. Diet and vitamin influences have also been thought to play a role in the cause of the development and progression if this condition.

The mineral salt formulation in Psoriasis-Ltd has proven effective in interrupting the abnormal skin growth that triggers the onset of psoriasis.

Psoriasis Triggers

Psoriasis tends to flare-up when the person is exposed to certain trigger factors. These conditions such as:
a lack of sunlight and low indoor humidity in the winter months,
injury to the skin can cause the formation of a psoriasis,
infections caused by bacteria or viruses can cause a psoriasis flare,
stress can trigger a psoriasis flares;

But many in teh field of psoriasis research are still unclear about exactly how this occurs. Studies do show that not only can a sudden, stressful event trigger a rash to worsen; daily hassles of life can also trigger the symptoms of a flare.

Researchers at Psoriasis-Ltd have found that when treating psoriasis, you may not always be able to control the factors that trigger or aggravate your condition, but you can control your approach toward addressing those triggers. A natural treatment to improve psoriasis skin can be found in basic lifestyle changes. The management of psoriasis can be challenging. No one treatment works for everyone, since the areas involved and the degree of scaling and inflammation affects different people in different ways. At best we try to interrupt the pattern of scaling and inflammation, which, in essence, are the symptoms of the disease.
