Anybody Have Any Good Home Remedies for Psoriasis?

Question by just me!: Anybody have any good home remedies for Psoriasis? My niece is 3 years old and has a patch of it on her scalp and I also have a touch of it on my knees and elbows. They have tried a medicated shampoo for her but it doesn’t seem to be working. I have also tried several prescription ointments for mine, that hasn’t worked real well. I just wondered if anyone knew of any home remedies for this. My grandfather has it also. I just hope my kids don’t end up with it. I was 19 before mine broke out. I’ve been told it’s hereditary. It’s hard to get control of and there is no cure for it and I really don’t want them to have to go through that and the people looking at you like you have some kind of contagious disease. That really gets on my nerves. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Read more... ...
