Dear Mr PATIENT can understand your problem but you need to understand that psoriasis is a chronic disease with propensity to spread, with a waxing waning course which is quite unpredictable. You may require some oral medications apart from topical. You need to visit nearby dermatologist personally you are intelligent enough to understand the fact that we cannot prescribe any medication which have a lot of side effects online, as it can harm you.
