Should be no connection.  There are many over the counter treatments for psoriasis, like even Selsun Blue shampoo has been known to help a little.  \n\nBut if you want real treatment, take it to a dermatologist.  He would have the strongest medicines.  \n\nBut as far as a connection with infertility, shouldn't be any.  If you feel heat down there, use an icepack down there whenever you feel really hot.

Tell her if you don't want to worry about this issue popping up later. Things might get nasty.

You might try this.  A friend of mine has really bad psoriasis all over her body.  She started using sea salt as an exfoliant on her skin.  She just got her body wet and rubbed the salt on her effected areas and the psoriasis started going away much better than the cream her doctor gave her.  It might be worth a try.

George,\n\nI'm so sorry that you feel that way.  I've done a little research, and although most of the treatmetn sites are conventional, you can go through them and get a lot more insight that I can provide here.  I hope someone else can come through and recommend something more to your liking as well.\n\nlink to the PA sites:\n\nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=&cat=&meta=&num=&ie=utf-8&q=Psoriatic+Arthropathy

You should go on webmd.com or wikipedia.com and look up psoriasis. They might have some information on other options.

If it's new, see a doctor, probably just a mild skin thing, fixed with some cream stuff, nothing to worry about. If it's been there a long time, like, a really long time, it might be psoriasis, or however it's spelled. It's a skin thing, also, nothing to be done about it, not contagious. But you can keep it down with some treatments. Doesn't sound bad, tho.

Hey Jessie, psoriasis can be mean. Try something like an aloe based cream. if U have access to fresh aloe then all the better. heat a leaf of it over an open flame(simmer on stove) or on a pan n slice it. apply the opened part of the slice on your hands while stil warm n keep for bout ten minutes.stay totally away from detergent.before sleeping u could wash area with luke warm water n use heaps of a heavy cream(check hypoallergenic-baby products are good). dont use water thats too hot on the area. salicylic acid creams help soothe the area.

True as you cannot cure psoriasis, but you can reduce the effects of it. See if you're having a mild/moderate or a serrrriously severe one. If the former, just hop in2 a pharmacy and get a pharmacist to give u some emmolient. If you are having the severe one, u really have to just follow the treatment the doc prescribed but do tell him what's bothering you.

Tell her just like you told us.....  I like to leave the light on because.....  We do have some expectations of privacy....  It's always best to be honest and straightforward.  Do not tap dance around the issues.  Just be pleasant and respectful and hopefully she will understand.

Alot of people have that and dont know it - If you really care for that person than thats a different story -it would be wise not to have sexual intercourse when they have breakouts-as to not infect you -though I  think you can still get it - the warts can be removed by freezing them -Dermatologists can do this- a friend of mine had to go through with this and he said it was extemely painful but worth it though  they can still return - \nHonestly this disease is not that bad compared to Aids or other diseases - its just like if you get warts on your hands  except you can get them on your genitals - its just an extra thing you would have to live with and maintain - my friend is now married and he has 2 kids -his wife was very understanding to his condition -and luckly she has never gotten them -though she could have them and just never break out - Anyway - its a decision you have to really think about and make sure its not something will be fine with now but not later -its something you must be able to accept for the long haul and if the realtionship doesn't workout you would have to take in consideration that you may walk away from that relationship with HPV - but if you really feel like this person is special and may even be the one then no amount of pesky little warts should keep you from experiencing that type of love or relationship - like I said there are far more worse things out there -even Herpes is about the same risk as HPV - but keep in mind HPV and Herpes can be linked to causing some cervical cancers if not kept an eye on with yearly visits to the DR - hope this helps

Ask your questions to the people who suffer from psorasis on Skincell Forums. They are the best people to ask.\n\nhttp://www.skincell.org/yabbse/index.php

But  were your usual friendly self .\n\n i am sure the guy with psoriasis ,understood your honest initial, reaction \n\n Your other friend, i believe is a bitch, for thinking you were being rude .

Sounds like psoriasis to me.

Please, don't put her health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect her mind and body. She must consult her doctor or a dermatologist. (I am a physician myself and this is the best advice I can possibly give you.)
