What causes psoriasis?

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder which occurs when the body’s immune system mistakenly starts attacking healthy skin cells. It is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, such as stress levels, hormones, infections, climate, lifestyle factors, and certain medications.

What cream is best for psoriasis?

Hydrocortisone creams and ointments are popular for treating small areas of psoriasis. While mild hydrocortisone is available over-the-counter, if you have more than just a few patches, it’s best to obtain an appropriate prescription from your GP to see the most effective results.
