After a lot of stressed years, due to economic problems and triggered by an additional emotional situation a typical pruritus, with small plaques formation, started to show up at my elbows. The smarting was very annoying sometimes.
Scratching produced a temporary relief. I tolerated that for about 10 days.
Thereafter I began my research. The medical analysis, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment would have taken a lot of weeks.
The literature review showed me some very awful cases. Mi problem, psoriasis though, was and still it is mild. At the next attack, preceded by another stress episode I started to test my own products made of plants extracts.
Locally I didn't get major achievements but, orally with individual and mixed extracts the situation was rewarding. Symptoms including pruritus disappeared in less than 24 hours. To create some catch for next posts, one of the plants that I have used is "sarsaparrilla" (Smilax officinalis), a vine that growth in our native bushes.
