What is the effect of phototherapy on psoriasis

One: phototherapy (UVB): the risk of using UVB in the short term is very small. The risk of long-term use of UVB is the same as exposure to the sun: skin cancer and skin aging.

Second: steroid hormone method: strong steroid hormone ointment (cream) is clean and effective for external use, but it is easy to relapse after drug withdrawal, and the side effects increase after long-term use.

Third: Although the skin can achieve temporary improvement after the use of hormone, it will worsen after the withdrawal of the drug. Some patients with psoriasis often rely on hormone drugs for a long time in order to subside the skin lesions in the fastest time, but after long-term use, they find that the skin also has other problems, that is, the phenomenon of skin atrophy in the treatment of psoriasis with hormone.

matters needing attention

Psoriasis patients should pay more attention in their daily life, especially in diet. They advocate taboo, but they also pay attention to food diversification, especially in the process of treatment. For health care, in order to get all kinds of nutrients needed by the body, we must get them from a variety of foods. The diversification of food is undoubtedly in line with the principles of nutrition. We should not be partial or greedy. Partial or greedy eating is not conducive to the health of the whole body, and it is also not conducive to the rehabilitation of psoriasis.
