Dear Dr Hale team,
I do have psoriasis and most likely psoriasis arthritis too. My baby daughter is 8 months old and nursing at least 5x per day. Are there any treatment plans that I could hope to start before I wean her completely? Before my pregnancy I had a vitamin D derivative containing ointment that helped after some cortisone cream. Could this or something similar work at least for my skin problems?
Thank you!
