I know someone with psoriatic arthritis. What is the cure? Please don't waste my time with anecdotal evidence from anonymous people who drink expensive imported juice and claim to be healed.What treatments and cures are available? What science is behind the remedies?

I do not believe there is a cure because it is caused by immune system problems. However, an arthritis specialist can prescribe medication that will help a lot. See a specialist in immune system and arthritis.

First off, has your friend actually had a biopsy done on the skin to positively confirm the diagosis? The reason I ask is that I was diagnosed with the same thing years ago. I then sought a second opinion from a dermatologist who did a biopsy. It wasn't psoriatic arthritis at all. It was Lichen Planus.If however, it is Psoriatric Arthritis, then I would highly reccomend either a Rheumatologist, or a Homeopath/Naturopath. Personally, I prefer the Homeopathic approach. There are no man-made chemicals involved, which our bodies are not designed to assimilate. Introducing an artifical chemical to the human body often times creates an alternate imbalance somewhere else, with its own set of problems.Your friend is very lucky to have someone like you in their life.
