• Unfortunately the skin doctor prescribes some antibiotics, antihistamine, anti inflammatory drug and steroid medicines used in chemotherapy along with some topical skin ointment.
• This type of skin care does not help in eliminating the reason behind the disease. Rather it tries to suppress the disease make it more and more chronic.
• That helps the disease recur again and again. Repeated recurrence brings up an idea that this disease is not curable.
• The patient is prescribed with Methotrexate a commonly used drug for chemotherapy.
• Side effects of Methotreaxate takes the patient’s life into a lane of darkness. It creates liver dysfunction. Also the patient may come across problems like dyspnoe and many others.
