I would say there's lots on here on all the creams that are any use for topical treatment , but it's difficult to advise as it depends on the severity of your psoriasis and then it's trial and error and between you and a dermatologist. If you haven't seen one yet, get your gp to refer you . He will make a judgement of what is the right course of treatment for you.
Most creams are either steroid based, or a vitamin derivative. But they are only available on prescription.

You could try coconut oil that proves very good at soothing the itch and moisturising

Beware of anyone selling you a cure.... They will get rich and you will still have psoriasis
Sorry I can't be more helpful, but I'm sure others will chip in with good advice

In your case I think it at least makes sense to check your score.
There are a number of questions to answer so you can think also and verify.
