Treatment

  • flexural psoriasis is often self-limiting

  • reducing skin contacts with irritants, topical emollients, weak topical corticosteroid preparations, mild tar preparations and tacalcitol or calcitriol (not calcipotriol) may improve the condition (1)

  • phototherapy generally fails to reach the affected areas
