Members responded to a question about whether a skin condition looked like pustular psoriasis, with several confirming it did and strongly encouraging a dermatologist visit for proper diagnosis and treatment. A recurring theme was that pustular psoriasis is different from common psoriasis and needs prompt medical attention, with members sharing that a biopsy can confirm the diagnosis and that topical treatments like clobetasol or betamethasone can help manage it. Several members also shared personal tips like using Head and Shoulders as a body wash and detox foot soaks with baking soda to help soothe symptoms.

I did go to the dermatologist and he did a biopsy. Do you know if the biopsy will show if it is Pustluar psoriasis? And thank you for your response.

Toxins release through the large pores on the soles of our feet. Detox foot soaks might help. Not epsom salt while you have open sores but baking soda. And general detox for the immune system.

So sorry you are going through this! That looks very painful! I also use clobetasol on my feet, but tried my husbands Betamethasone and it seems to work a little better.Just a random observation tho. I also have tiamcinalone cream if I need something not quite as strong. Hope you are able to get Pso under control and get your life back. Good Juju!

Hi AndreaF. That does indeed look like pustular. U might want to schedule a visit with the Dermatologist to have him/her/other check it out.
FYI: Pustular Psor is much different from your normal psoriasis & should be examined by a doctor ASAP! The dermatologist can prescribe a topical to tone it down if it's acting Up.
