Psoriasis

[Amie2]

Hi

Does anyone have psoriasis on the soles of their feet and if so how do they treat it so that they can still run

Suffering without my runs 😔

Yes, I do and have had times where the blisters were so sore that i had to take a couple of weeks off running and rest

What i have learnt over this last couple of years is: keep them clean, wash with mild soap and water daily my dermatologist said, moisturise, I smother in sudacream in the mornings, put on a pair of thin cotton socks then a pair of anti blister socks over the top, i keep out of shoes as much as possible and i never wear my leather shoes any more because they make my feet sweat and blister more easily. For the itchiness i take loratadine and if there is a really sore patch i cover with a soft padded dressing.

I’m not medically trained so that’s not advice it’s my experiences, but may give you some ideas as to how to manage your condition more comfortably

Good luck
