I've been diagnose with psoriasis for 9 years i understand well about psoriasis, recently I find out that my nails, muscle stress in neck and rashes are all related to lack of vitamin D. I apply doctor prescribe steroid cream with vitamin D on it, it helps a lot on my skin. May I know if there is any other causes for my condition? Maybe i am lack of certain vitamin all these time?
