Psoriasis and Its Homoeopathic Treatment Introduction
Do you suffer from red, scaly patches on the skin with itching and dryness? This could be Psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune skin condition that causes rapid buildup of skin cells.
Psoriasis is not contagious, but it can be persistent, uncomfortable, and emotionally distressing, as it affects appearance and confidence. It commonly appears on the scalp, elbows, knees, and back, but can involve nails and joints too.
At Homoeo Clinic, Dr. Dinesh Sharma offers a gentle and holistic homoeopathic approach that not only relieves symptoms but also addresses the root cause, helping reduce recurrence and improve quality of life.

Homoeopathic Approach to Psoriasis
Conventional treatments such as steroid creams, phototherapy, or immunosuppressants may control symptoms temporarily but often cause side effects. Homoeopathy provides a gentler, long-term solution by:
- Correcting the underlying immune system imbalance.
- Reducing scaling, itching, and inflammation naturally.
- Addressing associated conditions like arthritis or stress.
- Preventing relapses and improving overall health.
- Providing safe treatment without steroids or harmful chemicals.
At Homoeo Clinic, Dr. Dinesh Sharma prescribes remedies based on your unique symptoms, skin type, triggers, and overall health, ensuring a personalized treatment plan.
