Understanding Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic, non-contagious autoimmune skin condition that accelerates the life cycle of skin cells. This rapid cell turnover causes cells to build up rapidly on the surface of the skin, forming thick, silvery scales and itchy, dry, red patches that can sometimes be painful. At HEALit Clinic, we understand that these skin symptoms are outward signs of an underlying immune system imbalance, rather than a localized skin defect.
Common Signs of Psoriasis
- Red patches of skin covered with thick, silvery scales.
- Dry, cracked skin that may itch, sting, or bleed.
- Itching, burning, or soreness around skin plaques.
- Thickened, pitted, or ridged nails.
Factors That Flare Up Symptoms
- Emotional Stress: High stress levels trigger immune system responses.
- Skin Injuries: Cuts, scrapes, insect bites, or severe sunburns.
- Weather changes: Cold, dry air depletes skin moisture.
How We Approach Psoriasis Care
At HEALit Clinic in Chungathara, we employ classical, constitutional homeopathic principles. Rather than using topical suppressive creams that temporarily hide the symptoms, Dr. Vyshnav A conducts an in-depth case study. We evaluate your family medical history, immune profile, digestive efficiency, and psychological stressors to select an individualized remedy that stabilizes your immune response naturally.
