It just kills me to watch this. I've been to a dermatologist more times then I can count and nothing helps. I know you can't cure it but you can control it. Getting her to change diet, get sleep, and such is a no win situation. Plus I can't get her to do creams regularly. If you try and talk to her about it she gets bent and storms off.
uggg, if anyone has any ideas, I'd welcome them gladly. Thanks. |
That must be horrible for a teenager! mu husband was in his 40's when his started. He had an angioplasty inhis early 40's and after that surgery he developed severe psorisis. It truly is a heartbreaking disease. He cannot wear short sleeves and his legs just bleed and itch! He is a toll collector and so many people coming thru say what's wrong with your hands, is it contagious?
We have been to several drs and he also doesn't keep up with the lotions 3 times a day. The new injectibles are suppossed to work well but Idon't know if she is old enough but you may want to ask your doctor. good luck I feel for you and your dtr.
