Although this website has primarily been about socio-political issues and politics, I believe that if I were to examine the ideology of Avaaz more clearly, I’d have to say it’s raising a voice and creating awareness.
Hence I’ve taken it upon to address a wide range of topics lingering in the society.
From eMedicine:
“Psoriasis is a chronic, noncontagious, multisystem, inflammatory disorder. Patients with psoriasis have a genetic predisposition for the illness, which most commonly manifests itself on the skin of the elbows, knees, scalp, lumbosacral areas, intergluteal clefts, and glands penis. The joints are also affected by psoriasis in up to 30% of patients with the disease.
A lot of the victims of psoriasis have been subjected to abusive behaviour, going as far as not being allowed in a community pool because psoriasis is considered contagious. Psoriasis has a tendency to wax and wane with flares related to systemic or environmental factors, including life stress events and infection.”
Multiple types of psoriasis are identified, with discoid psoriasis, also known as plaque psoriasis, being the most common type. Plaque psoriasis usually presents with plaques on the scalp, trunk, and limbs. These plaques appear as focal, raised, inflamed, edematous lesions covered with silvery white scales.
Basically, it looks like this:
Patients with psoriasis have been victims of discriminatory and hurtful remarks. What people need to understand is that this is unstoppable and happens by itself. “Not taking care” or “not using creams” has nothing to do with it. People with psoriasis moisturize themselves equally well as non-psoriasis people do.
From Wikipedia:
“The cause of psoriasis is not fully understood. There are two main hypotheses about the process that occurs in the development of the disease. The first considers psoriasis as primarily a disorder of excessive growth and reproduction of skin cells. The problem is simply seen as a fault of the epidermis and its keratinocytes. The second hypothesis sees the disease as being an immune-mediated disorder in which the excessive reproduction of skin cells is secondary to factors produced by the immune system. T cells (which normally help protect the body against infection) become active, migrate to the dermis and trigger the release of cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha TNFα, in particular) which cause inflammation and the rapid production of skin cells. It is not known what initiates the activation of the T cells.”
What I aim to educate people about is that psoriasis is basically just a chronic skin-rash, non-contagious, caused by extreme weather conditions or stress. Think of it as extreme dryness.
Think before passing rude or hurtful comment that are completely ignorant and make a fool out of oneself. We need to educate ourselves about the problems that surround us, instead of a turning a blind eye to them.
Psoriasis is a skin affliction that is chronic and affects the skin mainly, but can sometimes affect the joints too. It causes the skin to look inflamed, scaly and so unsightly. But it is not contagious as many people believe. It is a recurring form of skin disorder that varies in severity. It can be due to various factors from genetically inherited to stress related. It usually needs constant treatment and medication. Homeopathy is quite effective and a safer option for people suffering from this skin disorder.
Dr. Sandra Kamiak, a natural doctor in Saratoga will be able to explain how homeopathy works. The homeopathic medicines used to treat psoriasis contain the active ingredient in very small doses and in a diluted form. This means that unlike conventional medication which may have side effects, homeopathy has no side effects and is safe to take as a long term treatment.
