Question

Stretch marks

Asked for Male, 23 Years

I am suffering from psoriasis from 6 years and now it's turned into psoriatic arthritis. I'm taking treatment for psoriatic arthritis and now for some reason I have developed lots of stretch marks on both my arms on the biceps and starting to develop on my thighs as well. Could you please advice me on my concern. Thank you.

Please stop using strong steroid creams for psoriasis. There are non steoridPlease creams also which can control psoriaisis and will not cause stretch marks. Please call me or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment.
