Are you looking for information on treatments for psoriasis? Here are some details from the knowledge base:

1. Phototherapy (Light Therapy)
- Types: UVB, UVA combined with psoralen (PUVA), and laser treatments.
- Benefits: Can help clear psoriasis.
- Risks: Long-term use may increase the risk of skin cancer. If you experience sunburn-like symptoms, consult your doctor about adjusting the dose.

2. Lifestyle Changes
- Moisturizing Regularly: Helps soothe itching, dryness, and prevents worsening of psoriasis by maintaining the skin’s natural barrier.

3. Step Therapy Concerns
- Insurance Requirements: Some insurers require trying less expensive medications first, which can delay access to more effective treatments and potentially worsen the condition.
