Psoriatic arthritis?
Does anyone know a natural cure for PA?
Public Comments
- Right now as with all forms of arthritis, there is no actual cure for psoriatic arthritis. Arthritis is an autoimmune disease, meaning that your immune system is not only viewing your joints as foreign material and attacking them, but in the case of PA, your skin as well. I have had rheumatoid arthritis for 24 years and over the past year I have developed symptoms that makes my rheumatologist think that I may have PA as well. He said that the current medication I am on for my RA (Humira) treats PA on an internal basis as well, and usually doctors recommend using various kinds of ointments and creams for external treatment of the dry skin itself.
I have found that Bag Balm works great on my dry skin and takes away the flaking and cracking that I have experienced. You can find Bag Balm in a little green tin in Walgreens...and yes...it really is designed to be used on cow udders! lol But once you get over that strange factoid it really is great stuff and many people swear by it for various skin conditions.
Personally I've never been a big fan of homeopathic/natural treatments of diseases, but can definately see the merit as they are usually cheaper and for many offer a peace of mind instead of putting "foreign" chemicals in their bodies to treat diseases. Whatever method you choose, just be *sure* to talk to your doctor. Even "natural" treatments can be dangerous if you take too much of something or follow the wrong advice. Good luck! - Hi, I am a Homeopathic Practitioner. You have not given any symptoms here, Homeopathy treats the patient not the disease so what and how you feel are the all important factors to be considered when looking up a remedy for your ailments the name of the disease is just the proverbial Tip of the iceberg, so to say. The term "Psoriatic Arthritis" brings to mind these two Homeopathic remedies initially, SULFUR and RHUS TOX both in 200 potency, start your treatment with SULFUR 200 one dose first thing in the morning and RHUS TOX 200 just one dose after 12 hours of taking SULFUR. Take them in that sequence for at least 3 days and report back with your progress. It would be better and more helpful if you give us your individual symptoms and details or consult a Homeopathic Practitioner .
Homeopathic remedies are totally free of side effects and do not cause any complications. And perhaps the only remedies which can cure you 100% without any side effects or complications.
Feel free to email me for any further help.
Take Care and God Bless.
