Help! My face is falling off!!

Oh don't you just love those warnings that in the state of CA the ingredient in it can cause cancer..why of course it would cause cancer anywhere else why should CA be exclusive..LOL Do you have any Noxema??? That's a medicated cream and feels nice and cool to the skin. OR....do you have any rubbed sage leaves? I've done this myself. I had some kind of weird rash on my face and made my face feel like it was burning. So I relied on my good ole sage solution (like I did for my kitty pyewacket's abscess)--Boil a cup or two of water and then put in about half a cup of the sage..let steep for about ten minutes or so...then with a strainer, place a paper towel in the strainer and pour in the sage solution into a bowl to drain out. Place the solution and let chill. Once it's cold you can use a tissue and pat on your face...It really made my skin feel better and cooled it down..so might help in your case??

This page was pretty helpful for my Mom's significant other... or her main squeeze, as he is also called... http://www.psoriasis.org/treatment/psoriasis/alternative/topicals.php I don't know how long any of these would take to work, but the nice thing is, they're reasonably priced!

I know that sunshine sometimes helps with psoriasis symptoms. I would look for an ointment with A and D in it, because A makes for healthy skin cells, and D is what you get from getting a little sun. Maybe a fish oil or cod liver oil capsule, broken open and dabbed on it. Other than that, I know that they say that Preparation H takes out puffiness, and Visine gets the red out of pimples. I hope you are better by tomorrow, dear.

Hi gmakesmoney, I'd only be guessing here, but try massaging some Emu Oil into your scalp and on your face each night before you go to sleep. Emu Oil is a marvellous healing agent, and it's also the best transdermal agent available (better even than the best pharmaceutical transdermals). You probably don't have to race out and catch an Emu and squeeze him each night, either. You can probably get Emu Oil from any decent Health Food or Natural Food place. Store it in the fridge, and use it anywhere you'd otherwise be likely to use moisturizer. Another suggestion is to try some Comfrey Cream if you can get it. Comfrey is a powerful regenerative agent, and should help underlying layers of skin to heal and develop properly. Mix Emu Oil in with it if you want it to soak right in. Yet another suggestion - and this one is probably more well known and popular - rub some Aloe Vera into your scalp and over your face each night before you go to sleep. Use the clear gel out of the middle of the plant, not the yellow sap. The clear gel is where the Aloe Vera plant stores all it's nutrients, and this stuff has powerful nutritional and healing properties. the clear gel from the middle of the plant is also quite edible, and will do you a world of good to have some each morning. It stores well in the fridge if kept in the leaf itself, and you just take out what you want when you want. You can easily (and I mean EASILY) grow your own Aloe Vera in a large pot or two. The plant hardly ever needs to be watered - it's a desert plant, and seems to just suck whatever it needs right out of the air. It will just grow and grow and grow without any attention at all, but it likes a good deal of sunshine, and doesn't like frost. Or you could just buy some decent Aloe Vera cream from the chemist or the supermarket. Last suggestion - drink a glass of warm water with a spoonful of Cayenne Pepper stirred in each morning. There's nothing better than Cayenne Pepper for nourishing the heart and cardiovascular system, and it encourages blood flow to all the peripheries, including the scalp, brain, eyes, fingers and toes. A good healthy blood supply is essential to maintaining good, healthy skin, and there's nothing better than Cayenne Pepper for that purpose. It might sound a bit extreme to be talking about Cayenne Pepper, but it's really not so bad as one might imagine, and is actually very good for one's general health. Anyway, try those things if you get a chance. I'd expect they will probably help, and won't hurt any.

LOL Its not that it doesn't cause cancer in other states, it's just that California is the only state that has a law that it has to be written on the packaging. My dad uses his psoriasis shampoo on his body and face and it has helped him a lot. His shampoo is over the counter though. You might want to wait until your skin heals, but I have heard many times that the tanning bed helps too.

I was in pharmacy a few years ago and one of the pharmacist sweared by green tea oil...it is suppose to help with that kind of stuff...you can get lotions and creams and the straight astract...you can try that....hopefully that will help...i also had a friend her mother had it all over and she use to go for swims in the ocean...the salt water would help...it would sting but it would also help....i don't know how quickly this stuff works but i hope it will work for u.

lol...never read the small print, but it's also a good thing I'm not in CA!! I just tried Psoriasin on my hands. I have had psoriasis to some degree since I was 13, but never before on my palms. Right now my hands hurt so dang bad! That stuff made me nausious from the smell, and like you said, made it look like oatmeal. And it itches. Usually, I have no itchy feeling on my elbows or legs, where I usually break out. I have been on vacation from work and go back tomorrow, and I work in a bank. I have been trying everything I can think of to get this cleared up. It seem that stress is a big contributor, and like a catch-22, the more I break out, the more stressed I get! I have been putting cortisone cream and triple antibiotic on the last few days, and it seems to be working better than the rest. I will have to try the vinegar! Good luck!
