QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS While psoriasis can develop at any age, most people see the first symptoms between young adulthood and their mid thirties. Injury or trauma to the skin can trigger a flare up of psoriasis, and not always immediately. You should speak with your doctor about the risks involved if you are considering a tattoo. Yes. Dry air, decreased sunlight exposure, and colder temperatures can contribute to psoriasis flare-ups in the winter. Care should be taken to avoid damage or injury to the skin. Certain dyes can be harsh to the scalp and may irritate open lesions. Speak with your doctor if you are unsure, and always carry out a test patch before applying to larger areas of skin. Similarly, try to choose low-irritant make‑up where possible, and carry out a test patch before applying to the face. Natural sunlight can positively affect psoriasis. Ultraviolet (UV) light is the basis of light therapy, a treatment for psoriasis. However, you should avoid sunburn, which can trigger a flare up. Certain treatments can also increase your skin’s sensitivity to light. Psoriatic arthritis is associated with psoriasis, and around 3 in 10 people with psoriasis may develop psoriatic arthritis.3 Though not all people with psoriasis will develop psoriatic arthritis, those who do tend to develop symptoms approximately 10 years after the onset of their psoriasis.4 There is no single test for psoriasis, so your doctor will make a diagnosis after talking to you about your symptoms and carefully examining your skin. To rule out other potential causes, they may require a small skin sample (biopsy). You may be referred to a dermatologist for a confirmed diagnosis and treatment. When considering choice of treatment, your doctor should consider the type, severity and location of your psoriasis, as well as the impact of both the disease and the treatment on your quality of life. Treatment will generally begin with topical therapy (such as ointments and creams) then move to light therapy, which uses ultraviolet (UV) light, and then systemic therapy, which works inside the body. Psoriasis is thought to affect about 2% of the population in New Zealand.1 While plaque psoriasis is the most common form of psoriasis, there are other types (guttate, inverse, erythrodermic, pustular, etc.) Psoriasis is not contagious and is not sexually transmitted, so it is fine to have sex in that respect. However, lesions in the groin or genital area may be irritated by sex. If this is the case, you can take practical steps like using lubrication or condoms to lessen friction. Don’t feel afraid to talk to your doctor about what you can do. It is also important to remember that psoriasis sufferers often feel self-conscious about their appearance, so in an intimate situation their partner should be as patient and supportive as possible. No, psoriasis is a disease of the immune system, and is not something you can catch and pass on. About 1 out of 3 people with psoriasis report having a relative with the disease.2 Speak with your doctor about your family history. It’s a chronic (long-term) disorder of the immune system that means your own body’s defense system mistakenly affects healthy skin cells. The effects you can see appear on the skin. Up to 3 out of 10 people with psoriasis may develop psoriatic arthritis, which impacts your joints and skin.3 Psoriasis affects men and women almost equally. While there is currently no cure, there are a variety of treatments that can help to clear psoriasis for periods. Not all treatments will work for everyone, and you may need to try several before you find one that works for you. Psoriasis may affect a small area of your body, or be officially classified as less than severe, but still have a strong negative impact on your quality of life. It is worth talking to your doctor about how psoriasis is affecting your life physically, emotionally, socially and sexually. Triggers can affect everyone differently. They can include (but are not limited to): - Smoking - Alcohol consumption - Infections - Physical trauma - Injury to the skin - Certain medications - Emotional stress Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease, which means the body’s defense system (the immune system) mistakenly affect healthy skin cells, acting against them as though it is fighting an infection or healing a wound. This causes skin cells to multiply at an abnormally fast rate, forming psoriasis plaques. Sometimes the symptoms of psoriasis becomes worse than other times (called a flare-up). Psoriasis is a long-term condition where the immune system overreacts causing an inflammatory response that causes normal skin cells to grow more rapidly. This results in a thick build-up of skin cells visible as plaque ‘lesions’ on the skin’s surface. Both are autoimmune diseases, but while psoriasis is associated with skin lesions, psoriatic arthritis is generally associated with painful, swollen and stiff joints, and inflammation of the tendons and spine. The earlier you go to the doctor, the sooner you can be diagnosed and can start treating your symptoms. Also, if you are already undergoing treatment for psoriasis, but feel that your symptoms are not being adequately controlled, you should not be afraid to go back and discuss your options. If you don’t speak up, your doctor may assume you’re coping well with your current treatment. - Plaque Psoriasis, DermNet www.dermnetnz.org/scaly/plaque-psoriasis, accessed 28/11/2013 - National Psoriasis Foundation: Statistics.

Liječenje psorijaze prirodnim lijekovima Psorijaza je bolest za koju se još uvijek ne poznaju točni uzročnici. Ipak, smatra se da je pojava psorijaze usko vezana uz oslabljen imunitet, ili slabiji rad jetre. Koža je naš najveći organ, i kada se pojave problemi sa kožom oni teško ostanu neprimijećeni. Psorijaza je jako neugodna bolest kože, a za koju još uvijek nema lijeka koji djeluje 100%. Riječ je o poremećaju kože koji dovodi do promjena u životnom ciklusu kožnih stanica. U tom slučaju dolazi do ubrzanog razvoja i odumiranja stanica na površini kože. Taj proces za sobom ostavlja zadebljanja na koži koja su vidljiva, te uzrokuju simptome poput svrbeži, ispucale i suhe kože, te crvenih mrlja koje ponekada znaju biti bolne. Ako pričamo o psorijazi, onda moramo naglasiti da se radi o bolesti koja je jako uporna i dugotrajna kronična bolest kože. Spomenuti simptomi bolesti se ne javljaju stalno, nego periodično, a posebno su izraženi pod utjecajem određenih faktora, kao što su hladnije vrijeme, infekcije, ozljede kože, neki lijekovi, stres, pušenje i alkohol. Tijekom liječenja psorijaze, naš primarni cilj je zaustavljanje rasta stanica kože. Spomenuli smo već da učinkovitog lijeka nema, ali postoje mnogi tretmani koji mogu pružiti značajno olakšanje. Osim proizvoda sa tržišta, koji mogu biti od pomoći, tu su i mnogi prirodni lijekovi, jako učinkoviti pa ćemo ih spomenuti. Da bi sami sebi pomogli, jako je važno pratiti upute koje Vam ovom prilikom donosimo. Jako je poželjno svakodnevno kupanje, jer će ono pomoći da uklonite nakupljeni sloj mrtve kože. Na taj način će te umiriti nadraženu kožu. Važno je da prilikom kupanja koristite prirodne sapune i izbjegavajte one koji mogu još više nadražiti vašu kožu. Ako imate psorijazu dobro je koristiti hidratantne kreme ili prirodna ulja nakon kupanja. Ovi preparati će vam pomoći da zadržite vlažnosti kože i spriječite njezino isušivanje. Nije dobro kožu stalno držati podalje od sunca i svježeg zraka. Dakle, ako imate problema sa kožom, u ovom slučaju sa psorijazom, važno je da kožu izlažete manjim količinama prirodne sunčeve svjetlosti. Preporučuje se umjereno izlaganje, no u slučaju pretjeranog izlaganja suncu, a osobito uz znojenje, simptomi se mogu pogoršati. Izbjegavajte raditi stvari koje vam još više mogu naštetiti, a tu se prvenstveno misli na uživanje u alkoholu i duhanskim proizvodima. Psorijaza je još uvijek nedovoljno istražena bolest, pa smo već spomenuli kako nije poznat 100% učinkovit lijek. Ipak, postoje mnogi preparati koji Vam pomažu da ublažite simptome i živite lagodnije. Danas se još uvijek ne može sa sigurnošću reći – što je uzrok psorijaze? Mnogi smatraju da je psorijaza povezana sa određenim problemima imunološkog sustava i stanica u tijelu. To bi značilo, da se tijekom liječenja psorijaze moramo posebno pobrinuti da je naš imunološki sustav zdrav i da radi besprijekorno. Jetra je organ koji ima važnu ulogu u funkcioniranju imunološkog sustava kod čovjeka, pa lako možemo doći do zaključka da je važno i rad jetre dovesti u red. Da bi ozdravili imunološki sustav, očistili jetra i bili zdravi, te ublažili simptome psorijaze, preporučujemo Vam da pročitate označene članke na tu temu. Pažljivo pročitajte, i odaberite za sebe neki prirodni lijek koji Vam može pomoći. Osim spomenutih prirodnih lijekova za psorijazu, ovdje ćemo navesti i neke za jačanje imuniteta, kao i ljekovite recepte za čišćenje jetre, odnosno detoksikaciju čitavog organizma. Ako uspješno ojačate imunološki sustav, pročistite jetru, vjerujemo da će se simptomi psorijaze povući, što će Vam zasigurno znatno povećati kvalitetu života.
