Episode 70: What Your Skin Is Trying to Tell You — Healing Acne, Eczema & Psoriasis from WithinYour skin is more than just what you see in the mirror — it's your body's messenger.In this episode of Connecting with the Thom's, we unpack the deeper story behind acne, psoriasis, and eczema through the lens of biological medicine and emotional healing.Rather than seeing skin issues as something to suppress or “fix,” we explore how the skin acts as a primary emunctory (body block) — a pathway your body uses to eliminate toxins, emotions, and inflammation when other systems are overloaded.We cover:

EP.05 - S3 - Psoriasis, culpabilité et représentations du corps : Avec Alison du compte @psorialisDans cet épisode, on reçoit Alison, créatrice du compte @psorialis, où elle partage son vécu avec le psoriasis depuis l'adolescence. Ensemble, on parle de l'impact psychologique des maladies de peau, des fausses croyances qui les entourent et du regard souvent culpabilisant porté sur le corps malade. Alison raconte son parcours, la manière dont elle a appris à vivre avec une maladie chronique visible, et la difficulté de trouver un équilibre entre acceptation, traitements, et pression sociale. On aborde aussi les dérives du bien-être, ces discours qui promettent la guérison par la seule volonté ou par des “méthodes naturelles”, et la nécessité de redonner leur place aux approches médicales et psychologiques sérieuses.

Episode 205: Atopic Dermatitis Kara Willbanks (medical student) explains the definition, pathophysiology, and treatment of eczema.

Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.October is the Eczema Awareness Month!What Is Atopic Dermatitis? Atopic dermatitis, a form of eczema, is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory skin disorder that often begins in childhood but can affect people of all ages. Other eczematous dermatoses include seborrheic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, juvenile plantar dermatosis, and stasis dermatitis. Atopic dermatitis is one of the most common skin conditions in the developed world, typically affecting up to 20% of children and 5-10% of adults. Patients usually present with severe pruritus (itchiness) and dry, inflamed patches of skin. Common sites include the face and extensor surfaces in infants, and flexural areas — like the elbows and knees — in older children and adults. Atopic dermatitis is often associated with other allergic conditions like asthma and allergic rhinitis — what we call the “atopic triad.” These conditions should also be considered when diagnosing someone with atopic dermatitis. PathophysiologyAtopic dermatitis is believed to occur due to a combination of genetic, immune, and environmental factors. A major component is a defective skin barrier, often linked to mutations in the filaggrin gene. This allows irritants, allergens, and microbes to penetrate the skin more easily, triggering inflammation.Differential DiagnosisAtopic dermatitis can sometimes mimic other skin conditions, so it's important to keep a differential in mind: -Contact dermatitis – triggered by allergens or irritants; often limited to the area of exposure but also tends to be very itchy. -Seborrheic dermatitis – greasy scales, typically on the scalp, eyebrows, and nasolabial folds -Psoriasis – well-demarcated plaques with silvery scales; sometimes found in similar areas of the body as eczema. -Tinea (fungal infections) – ring-shaped lesions with active, scaly borders -Important to note that treatment of tinea with topical steroids can make the rash much worse. -Scabies – intense itching, especially at night, with burrows between fingers. Ruling out these conditions helps guide the right treatment and prevent chronic mismanagement. As a recap our main differential diagnosis: contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, tinea, and scabies.The treatment cornerstone: Moisturizers The most important daily treatment for atopic dermatitis is regular moisturizing. Moisturizers repair the skin barrier, reduce water loss, and protect against irritants. They should be applied at least twice daily, ideally right after bathing while the skin is still damp (within 3 minutes is most ideal). Use greasy ointments or thick creams rather than lotions — think products with ceramides or glycerin (hydrates and protects skin). It is best to choose ointments or creams without additives, perfumes or fragrances. Greasier ointments are the preferred vessel; however, patient compliance may be less as they may be unpleasant to some.Bleach Baths For patients with frequent skin infections or severe eczema, dilute bleach baths can be a game-changer. How to do it? Use ¼ to ½ cup of household bleach in a full standard bathtub of water (about 40 gallons) and soak for 10 minutes, twice a week. This helps reduce bacterial colonization — particularly Staphylococcus aureus — which commonly worsens eczema. After the bath, pat the skin dry and immediately apply a moisturizer (within 3 minutes). Bleach baths are endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Dermatology as an adjunctive treatment for atopic dermatitis, especially in patients with moderate to severe disease and frequent bacterial infections, but the evidence for their efficacy is mixed, and further well-designed studies are needed.Medical Treatments-Topical corticosteroids: When moisturizers alone aren't enough, we move to anti-inflammatory therapy. Topical corticosteroids are the first-line treatment for flares. Some studies suggest that a short burst of a high-potency topical corticosteroid to rapidly control active disease, followed by a quick taper in potency, is most effective, whereas others use the lowest-potency agent thought to be needed and adjust upward only if this fails. Common steroids used are hydrocortisone (low potency), triamcinolone (medium potency), or betamethasone (high potency). -High-potency steroids should never be applied to sensitive skin like the face. With short-term use of lower-potency steroids, there is a low likelihood of skin atrophy but use for more than 6 months is linked with greater levels of skin thinning -Wet wrap therapy: Wet wrap therapy improves absorption of topic steroid. Apply a topical steroid, then layer a wet dressing and then a dry dressing over the top of that. This can be beneficial in providing  both relief of symptoms and prevention of itching. In pediatric patients it is called “daddy's socks therapy” because large socks may be used to cover the arms of kids.-Topical calcineurin inhibitors — like tacrolimus — are great alternatives for sensitive areas or for maintenance once inflammation is under control. They may burn upon application which can scare patients away from their use.-PO antihistamines can help with itching, especially at night, but they don't treat inflammation itself.-Systemic therapies, like dupilumab (Dupixent®), an IL-4 receptor antagonist, are reserved for moderate to severe cases unresponsive to topical therapy. This is a great time to refer to your local dermatologist for management! Many of the newer treatments are highly effective but can require more frequent monitoring.Recent Research One recent study is the 2024 Cochrane network meta-analysis comparing effectiveness of topical anti-inflammatory treatments for eczema that was recently published in the AFP Journal in July of 2025.Here are the highlights:-Over 291 RCTs with ~45,846 participants were included. -The analysis ranked potent topical corticosteroids, JAK inhibitors (for example ruxolitinib (Opzelura® 1.5 %), and tacrolimus 0.1 % among the most effective for reducing signs and symptoms of eczema. -In contrast, PDE-4 inhibitors [like crisaborole (Eucrisa®) 2 %] were among the least effective in this comparison. -Regarding side effects: tacrolimus and crisaborole were more likely to cause burning or stinging at the application site; corticosteroids were less likely in the short term to cause local irritation.-Long-term outcomes regarding effectiveness or safety of treatments for eczema were not addressed by the review because they are rarely reported.”-Another insight from this study is considering cost when initiating treatment. Most topical steroids are significantly more cost effective than JAK inhibitors or calcineurin inhibitors so it may be best to start with a cheaper solution in an uninsured patient considering their relative effectiveness. Additional Tips & Lifestyle -Keep baths and showers short and in lukewarm water.-Avoid harsh soaps and detergents — use gentle, fragrance-free cleansers.-Wear soft cotton clothing instead of wool or synthetics.-Identify and avoid triggers — common ones include stress, sweating, allergens, and certain foods (especially in kids).-Ice packs can help reduce itching and relieve any burning sensation.-Keep fingernails short, especially in children, help cause less trauma to the skin from repeated itching. Living with eczema Many celebrities like Kerry Washington, Jessica Simpson, Kelly Rowland, Brad Pitt and Kristen Bell have spoken out about their lives with eczema. They have shared personal stories about how they were diagnosed, what treatment works for them, and the general impact it has had on their lives and mental health. I feel like it can be so important for celebrities to speak out about their lives with certain conditions because it helps to normalize the condition, raise awareness of the struggles, and encourages more open dialogue.It is important to remember that for patients living with eczema, the persistent itch-scratch cycle can be very distressing, causing patients to struggle with their sleep and day-to-day activities. Anxiety and depression are common in patients with eczema so as physicians it is vital to monitor for signs of distress. Support groups can be incredibly helpful for patients [National Eczema Association]If you are interested in providing additional information to your patients or getting this for yourself, you can find more resources on altogethereczema.org or nationaleczema.org. Key Takeaways Atopic dermatitis is chronic but manageable. Moisturizers are the foundation of treatment. Topical steroids and calcineurin inhibitors control inflammation. Bleach baths help reduce bacterial load and flare severity. Always rule out other skin conditions to ensure appropriate management. Atopic dermatitis can be managed by the primary care physician but in certain cases (cases refractory to standard topical treatment, recurrent infections, etc.), a referral to dermatology can be especially helpful.Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser. Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast.

Description: In this episode, we'll explore what it means to aim for no compromise in psoriatic arthritis care—addressing both skin and joint symptoms with dermatologist and rheumatologist Dr. Saakshi Khattri and patient advocate Dayna Pham who lives with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.   Join moderator Jeff Brown as he asks how patients and their healthcare providers can work in partnership to create a comprehensive, personalized treatment plan that reflects the full impact of psoriatic disease with triple board-certified dermatologist, rheumatologist, and internist Dr Saakshi Khattri, who is also an NPF medical board member, along with Dayna Pham, a patient advocate and volunteer with NPF's advocacy and community engagement teams who is living with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. . Whether you're newly diagnosed or navigating long-term care, this conversation is all about advocating for care that supports your whole self—without settling for less.   The intent of this episode is to emphasize the need to be aware of psoriatic arthritis symptoms and once symptoms are present accept no compromise when treating skin and joints to obtain clear skin and painless joints.  This podcast episode is sponsored by UCB. Timestamps: (0:23) Intro to Psoriasis Uncovered and guest welcome dermatologist, rheumatologist, and internist Dr. Saakshi Khattri and Dayna Pham, a patient advocate and medical student living with plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (1:38) Psoriasis is more than skin deep with an inflammatory connection between the skin and joints. (3:03) The onset of psoriatic arthritis can be confusing. Healthy skin and joints should be the expectation without having to compromise on life's goals. (4:16) Knowing the association between psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis from the beginning is important to avoid delay in diagnosis and treatment. Be aware of systemic symptoms and discuss risks with a health care provider. (6:18 ) The goal of treatment is to achieve meaningful and lasting improvement in skin and joint symptoms.   (7:56) Treatments have evolved to target known drivers of inflammation in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (8:29) The IL-17 family is a key cytokine with 6 related signaling molecules. IL-17A and F play a role in the inflammatory process related to psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (9:48) What discussion about treatment goals could include between a patient and health care provider. (13:19) If you have psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis you should feel empowered to speak up, seek answers, and find a treatment that offers no compromise on achieving clear skin and healthy joints.   Key Takeaways: ·       Psoriasis is an immune mediated disease that results in systemic inflammation that can affect        both the skin and joints. Unfortunately many people do not realize their joint symptoms may          be related to their psoriasis.  ·       The purpose of treatment which uses a variety of mechanisms of action targeting specific cytokines such as TNF-alpha, IL-12/23, IL-23, IL-17 is to achieve meaningful and lasting improvement in skin and joint symptoms. ·       If you have psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis you should feel empowered to speak up, seek answers, and to work with your health care team to identify goals and treatment choices that aim to preserve quality of life. Guest Bios:   Saakshi Khattri, M.D., MAS, is a triple board certified medical dermatologist, rheumatologist, and internist in the greater New York area who serves on the medical board of the National Psoriasis Foundation. She is the Director of the Center for Connective Tissue Diseases at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Khattri's area of interests include inflammatory and autoimmune skin diseases especially those with a rheumatology/dermatology overlap like psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.  She is actively involved in research and clinical trials for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis where she seeks to identify immune pathways that lead to new biomarkers and treatments. Dr. Khattri is extensively published  in peer reviewed journals and is also a member of the International Psoriasis Council.                                                                                                                                                                  ​Dayna Pham is  a patient advocate, medical student, and volunteer with NPF's advocacy and community engagement teams who lives with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Dayna's psoriasis journey began at age 21 when she discovered bumps on her back which became plaques. Within weeks her body was impacted head to toe with plaque psoriasis, at 40% BSA.  After being misdiagnosed and undertreated for a few months she eventually found a dermatologist who diagnosed her with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and prescribed a biologic. She's 25 now and seeks to live her fullest life possible while balancing her psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.

Timestamps: (0:41) Intro to Psoriasis Uncovered and guest welcome dermatologist Dr. Robert Kalb and rheumatologist Dr. Sergio Schwartzman who are both involved in clinical care and research of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.  (1:15) Current known pro-inflammatory cytokines and cells found in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.   (5:33) Types of psoriasis that may lead to a higher risk of developing psoriatic arthritis. (9:33) Common triggers for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis that could cause flares of the disease. (12:59) Key factors that are considered when choosing a treatment plan for any individual with psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. (18:04) What treatment remission means for psoriasis. (19:36) Use of minimal disease activity (MDA) in psoriatic arthritis and what it means. (22:14) How a better understanding of the disease has led to more effective treatment choices and what choices are used by Dr. Kalb and Dr. Schwartzman for the management of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. (28:39) New developments in treatment and research in psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. (36:01) Given treatment advancements it's a wonderful time to treat psoriatic disease. 3 Key Takeaways: ·       Cytokines are chemicals in the body that moderate various processes. In psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis,  an unknown trigger stimulates some cells to overproduce pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha, IL-17 or IL-23 leading to the development of skin and joint disease.  ·       Treating psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis helps move the body towards normalizing the over reactive immune system especially with more targeted treatments that safely and effectively block specific cytokines without affecting other organ systems.  ·       Given advancements in targeted treatments the goal is to reach and maintain remission of psoriatic disease.

Could your fatigue, bloating, or random skin rashes be more than “just stress” or IBS? You might be shocked to learn they could actually be signs of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or even colon cancer — yes, it's possible without having obvious digestive symptoms.It's unfortunately common to discover that you have Crohn's or ulcerative colitis in your 60s, and not because of gut issues… but during a routine colonoscopy screening. Others are misdiagnosed for years while battling brain fog, thyroid problems, skin issues like psoriasis, vitiligo, eczema, or even unexplained anemia — all while the real problem quietly worsens.I'm joined by Dr. Ilana Gurevich, a naturopathic gastroenterologist who specializes in complex GI disorders. We dive into the hidden signs of IBD, how it differs from IBS, sneaky signs of colon cancer (especially with skyrocketing rates), and the TRUTH about colonoscopies – why you should absolutely stop putting it off and never use a stool test for gut health as a replacement.If you've been brushed off, gaslit, or still searching for answers, you don't want to miss this.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

Episode 25:41 The (Natural) Autoimmune Solution It is estimated that nearly 50 million Americans suffer with an autoimmune disorder. Conditions such as Hashimoto's, Crohn's, Ulcerative Colitis, Multiple Sclerosis, Type 1 Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis and Vitiligo.  The cause, according to the medical profession, is unknown. I don't believe that. The treatment, according to the medical profession, focuses on drugs. Drugs such as Immunosuppressants, Anti-Inflammatories, Corticosteroids, and Pain killers. I don't agree with that. The mechanism of action is that the Immune System starts attacking healthy cells. I don't think that's correct. So, what do I think? THAT is what this episode is all about. The cause, treatment and mechanism of action regarding autoimmune disorders. It's an episode that will certainly ruffle some feathers while also shedding some light on an interesting subject. Be sure to give it a good listen… especially if you, or someone you know, suffers with an autoimmune disorder.  And, as always, please share it with a friend.  Thanks!  ———————- Want to learn more?

Modern dermatology is failing patients because the toolbox hasn't changed in decades: antibiotics, steroid creams, and ointments. These approaches may calm the surface symptoms, but they do nothing to address what's really going on underneath the skin (the root drivers of your condition.) That's why this episode matters. We dig into the real causes of eczema, psoriasis, and acne and more importantly, the science-backed solutions that actually correct the problem at its source.  These aren't just band-aids for symptom management. They're pathways to true, lasting healing.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: The failures of modern dermatology relying on drugs An intergrative approach to skin health (diet, lifestyle, probitoics and gut health) The causes, genetic markers and solutions of eczema, psoriasis and acne The skin-gut connection Environmental triggers for your skin (micorplastics, pesticides, mold and early choldhood edvelopment) Parasites and heavy metals as it relates to skin issues Symptom suppression and gaslighting that your doctor does for you skin issues The future of skin care and healing skin conditions    More from Dr. Partha Nandi Website: codexlabscorp.com Codex Labs on Amazon: amazon.com/stores/CodexLabs Instagram: @codexlabs     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Mediterranean Diet Kills The Itch of Psoriasis Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DPayUr7CdHN/Consuming a diet rich in olive oil, vegetables, fruits, nuts, whole grains, fish and some poultry for 4 months can dramatically curb not only itchiness but also the red, scaly, patches characteristic of the disease.  Spanish dermatologists report their randomized, preliminary study of 38 psoriasis patients in the journal JAMA Dermatology. At the study's conclusion, 47% of those consuming the Mediterranean diet enjoyed a 75% reduction in psoriasis signs and symptoms as scored by the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index.  The investigators postulate that this disease improvement was due to the Mediterranean diet's anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties effect on the auto-immunity characteristic of psoriasis. Clearly, larger studies are needed to confirm and expand this small clinical trial.  Nonetheless, this dietary modification could be a valuable adjunct to the current medicinal therapies.https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamadermatology/fullarticle/2839013#psoriasis #mediterranean #diet #itch psoriasis, mediterranean, diet, itch

Have you tried maca root for perimenopause, menopause, manopause (low T), adrenal fatigue, or hormone imbalances and felt like it didn't work—or even made things worse? While it's often marketed as a universal hormone balancer, not all maca is created equal. Different types of maca root affect the body in very different ways, so using the wrong kind can actually worsen symptoms triggering anxiety, acne, or energy crashes.In this episode, Dr. Deanna Minich, PhD—nutrition scientist and educator —returns to unpack the science behind maca's many forms.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Bryce: Hi Dr. Cabral! I'm a newer listener but have spent all year trying to reverse my plethora of health issues. I'm sick of spending thousands of dollars on supplements and tests and going down different rabbit holes. But I've seen all the specialists, done functional meds, lots of labs and still have not seen any resolve. My main issues being nail psoriasis (the worst any doctor has seen) and lots of bloat and digestive issues. I can give you more detail but think my issues are nervous system and autoimmune based as I have type one diabetes and lymphocytic colitis as well. I'm only 29 and getting married soon and just hoping to get my body better aligned with how I treat it. I eat super healthy, weightlift, but cannot lose the bloat and need to feel better soon. Help please!                                                                                                        Jackie: Hi Dr. Cabral thank you for all that you and your team do - I can't express enough how much you have changed my life and my clients. I have a question regarding nerve pain, my husband has TOS and we are persueing everything we can nutritionally/orthopedically. Could you provide us an update on your experience with red light - the Joov specifically? Are there any other passive modalities that you know clinically impact nerve pain that can be done from home? For context heath/cold/palpation all make the nerve pain much more prominent.                                                                               Jess: Hi and thank you for all you do! Ever since Covid and Moderna I have a sun allergy. It took me 6 months to get over Covid 4 years ago, I'm 95% better other than my skin. It seems Moderna is well-linked to first time PLME. How can I fix this? I've laid out in the sun all of my life and now I can't do 10 minutes without a rash.          Larissa: Hello! I have some questions about parasites for beginners. I've done the GI map stool test that was negative for parasites. However, I have many symptoms consistent with parasitic infections and hear that most tests are not accurate. Do you have a test you recommend for parasites in the gut? Is there a different test to check for parasitic infections in the brain? As far as treatment, I did food sensitivity tests and have significant intolerance to wormwood. Can you recommend an alternative? Is it worth treating if there is high suspicion or should you confirm with testing? I'm an adult but I have the same questions for toddlers. Thank you so much!                                                                                        Lari: Hello, I have a 5yr old niece with tines versicilor. I'm wondering how she could have developed this? Interestingly enough, her 8 yr old brother had moloscum contsgiosum about 2yrs ago and 6yr old brother developed absent seizures around that time after a trip to sea world. Could this be related? Also, how would you treat tines versicolor in a 5yr old girl?
