Dr Shah’s take on topical treatment
Nonetheless, it must be noted, as the good doctor has been always saying that psoriasis is a disease on the skin. It should not be considered a disease of the skin. It means that psoriasis has been a disease of internal, immunological system that manifests on the skin. The topical treatment has been short lasting and superficial treatment.
Our experience based on a couple thousand of cases treated at Life Force would state that when you treat psoriasis or any skin disease for that matter by topical method, the disease would invariably relapse or come back.

Immune system has been governed by host of factors such as genetic, hormonal factors, emotional, physical, environmental, etc. Therefore, homeopathy aims to consider the totality of the person who suffers from psoriasis.
