Have had plaque psoriasis for several years now, very ugly, makes me very self conscious, never bare legs or shoulders, keep hair long enough to cover neck. Also get pitting of nails and thickening of toenails, my feet are a sight. In recent months I think I may also be getting psoriatic arthritis in one knee. I am 35, very overweight.
GP says psoriasis not severe enough to refer to dermatology and can't do anything about nails. Thinks knee pain just down to being overweight, tells me to take ibuprofen. Prescribes steroid creams but psoriasis always comes back.
Feeling really down about it tonight. Is there anything I can do?
