Top 10 Psoriasis Triggers / Causes
Submitted by mypsoria on Fri, 02/15/2008 - 01:40.
In personal experience and scientific evidence, these are items I have seen cause/trigger Psoriasis. Yes, genetics do play a role in Psoriasis, but often Psoriasis may never come out if not triggered. Or, if a life altering experience, such as those below happens then Psoriasis could be triggered. Psoriasis is not contagious. If a person has a large outbreak of Psoriasis that does not mean it will happen again.
1. Secondhand smoke (from cigarettes, pipes, tobacco and others)
2. Smoke of other kinds, such as incense
3. Bad air quality / chemicals
4. Stress
5. Skin creams and treatments
6. Genetics
7. Bad foods
8. Weakened state
9. Pesticide exposure
10. Other chemical exposure, such as cleaning agents

We recommend the products below for psoriasis.
Denorex Therapeutic Shampoo - This therapeutic coal tar shampoo is not easy to find! Many states do not sell it, so this link on Amazon is ideal. Denorex helps with Psoriasis and dandruff, due to the coal tar!
Oxipor Psoriasis Lotion - This lotion contains 25% coal tar solution! That is tremendous for psoriasis redness and scaling. We highly recommend this.
Pen-Kera Therapeutic Creme - This is a moisturizing creme dermatologists recommend, as it is very healing, safe for sensitive skin, dye free, lanolin free, and fragrance free.
Psoriaflora Psoriasis Cream - This cream helps heal psoriasis scaling, redness, and itching.
Gold Bond Medicated Extra Strength Body Lotion - This body lotion relieves itching, dry skin, and contains healing ingredients to help skin.
