The Right Oils to Apply on Psoriasis

 natural oils

Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin condition that affects up to 7.5 million people in the United States. There is plenty of benefits and evidence to suggest that coconut oil may help some people with psoriasis. It is a popular natural remedy and beauty treatment and has become utilized by people to use it as a natural treatment for psoriasis.

Some research does indicate that this oil may reduce inflammation, which could explain why it helps treat psoriasis. People have used coconut oil for centuries to treat skin conditions and other ailments, especially as a main skin nourishment.

As psoriasis is an inflammatory condition, coconut oil could potentially help alleviate its symptoms and reduce flares, along with other anti-inflammatory ingredients, such as manuka honey, cehami flower extract, and shea butter.

People with psoriasis may be more prone to other types of skin infection, or their lesions may become infected. Applying antibacterial substances to the skin could reduce this risk, which manuka honey is a natural antibacterial!

How to Use Coconut Oil for Psoriasis

As the skin does not readily absorb it, many people apply the oil before bed and allow it to remain on the skin throughout the night. They then rinse it off in the morning and gently pat the skin dry.

Some people prefer to dilute the oil with another oil, such as castor oil or olive oil. This practice may make it easier for the skin to absorb the combinations of oils. Adding several natural ingredients that have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties could help with psoriasis as well.

Other Uses for Coconut Oil

Coconut oil has many other applications for health and beauty. People have traditionally used coconut oil as:

A moisturizer. Moisturizes and softens the skin.

A skin treatment. People use coconut oil for skin conditions other than psoriasis, including acne, eczema, and dermatosis.

A dandruff remedy. Dandruff that results from seborrhoeic dermatitis, a chronic inflammatory skin disorder, may resolve after coconut oil application.

Alternative Treatments for Psoriasis

Many home remedies and medical treatments can help people with psoriasis reduce their symptoms or achieve remission, which is a temporary break from symptoms. Psoriasis treatments and home remedies include:

Avoiding Triggers

Many substances and lifestyle factors may trigger a flare-up of psoriasis. Avoiding these triggers can help people control their condition.

Common psoriasis triggers include:

  • food allergies
  • infections, such as skin or chest infections
  • medications, including some drugs for malaria, high blood pressure, and heart problems
  • nutrient deficiencies
  • skin damage from sun exposure, bug bites, or scratching the skin
  • smoking
  • drinking alcohol
  • stress
  • changes in the weather
