Wow loving the welcomes, thank you so much. You all sound like a fun group supporting each other and being part of it has a great feeling. Regardless of our condition it is important to know there is some where to go when in need to share our feelings with others who know exactly what we are going through. Thank you.

The links you have given me are a huge help and really interesting. I have googled such a lot but all the info is pretty general. Yet the info already received from you is more personal, thank you.

Bb thank you for your message!

Hello. Welcome to the club.

Welcome to the club!

I don't know if it's available where you are as I'm in the states but I really like Tom's of Maine deodorant. No chemicals and uses natural ingredients. Also, it works well

Hi nice to meet you!

I have had problems with deodorants in the past, though some of the sensitive varieties are fine. While your psoriasis is bad there I’d suggest not using anything, and giving them a quick wipe halfway through the day - if water makes them sore, just use a moisturising cream you can get on with instead.

I know that bicarb works very well as a ‘natural’ deodorant but it makes me itch after a while.

I had thought of getting some personal wipes, is that something you have tried?
