I suspect that prolonged use causes obesity or increases your chance of becoming obese and that the psoriasis is just worse for people who have lived with it longer. Alternatively, the disease or the stressor that causes psoriasis to worsen also causes weight gain in some people.Not sure if it's just me, but I seem to become more iron deficient when my psoriasis gets worse, which makes me too tired to exercise.

I find that topical creams or tar cleansers work for mine, but I usually only have one or 2 nails affected at a time. I combine or alternate an antifungal cream with a 0.5% hydrocortisone cream and avoid any harsh soaps. I clean the nail and rub the cream over it and leave some under it too.
