Hi - I was just curious to see if anyone else here has chronic or recurring skin issues. I have psoriasis which started about 4 years ago (my hep b was not active then, and my doctors said they don’t see any reason why it is related).
I have been trying to see if there is a relationship between when my psoriasis flares to my lab results fluctuating but so far no connection that I can pinpoint. I know that liver damage can cause some skin stuff, not specifically psoriasis, but wanted to see if anyone else here has experiences. Thanks!
I ve had skin issues here and there. I noticed when my diet is bad or just “regular”, meaning eat what I want, I get real itchy and red spots show up whenever I get hot. When I am very mindful of what I eat, meaning very minimal sugar and processed foods, in about a week of eating right and exercising, my skin issues are not there.
Please change your diet and minimize your food intake. For about a month and see if it helps
Hi @kostas, apologies for missing this question the first time around. I am not aware of any studies showing a good correlation between the flares associated with hepatitis B and psoriasis. It’s also not a symptom that is commonly reported amongst the affected community.
