Just wondered how many of you on here who suffer with psoriasis, also suffer, or
Have suffered, with sinus problems at some point in your life?

I do have anosmia (loss of smell) but that was due to a bad flu a few years ago. I don't recall having any sinus issues I could put down to psoriasis though.
May be a good idea to discuss it with your GP.

I have sinus issues, but mostly during allergy season so I tend to think it's more related to pollen and such.
But I used to get sinus infections constantly. Not so much in the last 10 years though.

I have problems at this time of the year from pollen etc especially at night so I bought a Levoit air purifier for the bed room and it's made a big difference.

Thanks for all your replies. I have recently noticed quite a few people with psoriasis who also have sinus or mucus issues, including my self, and just wanted to test the water, and see how many of you guys have this problem as well.
Thanks
