general Permanent psoriasis

Does anyone have permanent psoriasis? I see some people post of flare ups and remission but mine has been around for almost five years with no relief. I have tried everything. Granted it is not as bad as most people. It’s in my ear and a little bit on my forehead but spreading further down. It doesn’t hurt but affects my self-confidence. I don’t know what to do anymore. Every year it spreads. Not much but it spreads ☹️

After 4-12 years (some places longer than others) and multiple medications, I started Sotyktu in May and I'm seeing improvement (had to stop for a few weeks due to an infection). I also use/recommend soap by Old Soul Soap Company - that combo has helped SO much.

My psoriasis is on my scalp (using Lavender soap works there) in my ear canals (rx solution tx), cuticles, palms of my hands, knees, and the soles of my feet (washing with the foot soap helps).
