It is well known that stress isn't good for psoriasis , yet why do we treat the illness with Cortisone, a compound very similar to cortisol (and "has a similar name, genesis, and function", according to wikipedia) whilst cortisol is released in the body in stress situations?
Why is Psoriasis treated with Cortisone, when stress (which releases Cortisol) is known to aggravate the condition?
