Managing dry scales with Psoriatic Arthritis

Hi Everyone! I am new to this site and newly diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis. I am still learning how to manage with the pain, inflammation and dry flakey skin. Does anyone have any tips? I was prescribed fluconazole and hydrocortisone 1% which both did not help. Anything will be helpful. Thank you!

  1. Hi , welcome to the new site. A new diagnosis can be overwhelming, but I hope our community can help provide you with resources. I hope people may chime in to share their own experiences (of course what works for some might not always work for others). If you don't know already, we also have a sister community, PlaquePsoriasis.com that might have some tips for skin symptoms. Here are some articles you might also be interested in: https://plaquepsoriasis.com/treatment, https://plaquepsoriasis.com/living/management-tips, I hope this may help. Warmly, Minel (Team Member)
