Hi

Im new to the forum. I have had psoriasis since i was 15 now 25 i have tried everything to help it....with NO joy.
Has anyone ever had a lapse of psoriasis? Every doctor i have ever seen has alway said i will get a lapse at different times of the year. I have never had that. Would like to know if it does happen.

hello Jane and welcome!

most sufferers seem to have lapses, this can be seasonal, stress or biologically related. the most popular reason for relapses is definitely seaonal with the the warmer weather and increased UV from the sun generally speaking - but not always unfortunately.

hi jane - do you have lapses? heck, yes! it comes down to noting what makes the flare up and trying to avoid it in future. bit of trial and error but you should be able to work them out eventually.
