Acupuncture?

[Fred]

Has anyone ever tried acupuncture as a relief?

Sorry for the 20 questions but if I do not ask them now, I'll forget and only remember when I on top of a mountain in the middle of nowhere with no internet access for miles  

Ask away it's a forum for asking questions.

Not tried it myself, have been tempted and spoken to some people who said worked for other problems but after taking it all in I decided it was the placebo effect (you spend your money and think it will work, and it does for a while but it don't last and your wallet is getting empty)

I've not spoken to anyone who said it worked for psoriasis, and I don't think we have any members who have had results from it.

Sorry not helping much in your questions, but I'm giving my own personal answers. In my opinion you need to get to a dermatologist and work with them rather than try and find something of your own, years of psoriasis has taught me that.

As you can tell by now I'm not a fan of going it alone, though some of our members do and they are happy. But you will sometimes get mixed answers, sometimes you will get almost all saying the same thing. But we are real people with our own experience, and what works for one may not work for another.

At the end of the day it has to be your choice which way to go, we can only give our opinions. You as a member of Psoriasis Club can also do the same, but none of us are doctors we're just people like you with psoriasis sharing our own opinions so don't be put off if the answers are negative to your questions and post as much as you like.
