I'm curious if there's a way to cure psoriasis through homeopathy. Also, is it okay to take allopathic medicine at the same time while getting treated for psoriasis with homeopathy?
It is generally not recommended to mix different types of treatments without consulting healthcare professionals. It is important to inform both your allopathic doctor and homeopath about all the medications you are taking to avoid any potential interactions. It is best to seek guidance from both practitioners to ensure safe and effective treatment.
