PSORIASIS, A COMMON SKIN PROBLEM
BY EDWIN T. WRIGHT, M.D.
Certified by the American Board of Dermatology
One out of every 50 persons
In the U. S. has psoriasis, stak
ing it one of our most com
mon skin diseases.
What causes this problem of
scaling skin, which affects both
sexes equally, is not fully un
derstood. Many medical re
searchers now believe it is re
lated to a hereditary biochem
ical defect in the epidermal
cells. Recurrences stay be. trig
gered by a change in climate,
and by physical or emotional
.stress. Other factors that have
been found to influence the
course of psoriasis include in
jury to the skin, obesity, Over
indulgence in alcohol, and se
vere viral and bacterial infec
tions of the respiratory tract
Although there is no abso
lute cure for this skin disease,
there are treatments thal
speed healing and clear up the
condition for periods of time
Sunlight relieves many cases,
but is ineffective for others. A
soothing bath oil added to bat!
water helps to relieve itching
Medications, such as
lotion and shampoo, available
at drugstores, which contaic
tar and other Ingredients to
help remove scales, are particu
larly useful.
The newer steroid creams
and ointments, especially when
covered by plastic wrappings
kept on overnight, have ef
fected dramatic,' temporary im
provement in' many cases.
However, they cannot be used
continuously or too often be
cause of inconvenience of ap
plication, and undesirable side
effects. Tot some patients, the <
coal-tar based medication and
steroids give similar results.'
Even more recently, a group
of drugs called anti-metabolites
are being used for highly re
sistant cases. However, they
have to be used under strict
medical supervision, and with
caution.
It should be reassuring for
the person with psoriasis to
know that much research is
currently in progress on this
condition. Hopefully, before
long a cure will be possible.
In the meantime, following the
recommendations of your phy
sician will help to control pso
riasis effectively.

“Using the. off-season control
practices will give the farmer
a year-round program — which
we believe is the most effective
and, in the long run, probably
the least expensive grass and
weed program to follow.”
The specialist cited some per
ennial pests — bermudagrass
(wiregrass), nutgrass (nutsedge)
and johnsongrass — that need
attention during the fall mid
winter.
Bermudagrass problems can
be reduced by spraying with
dalapon before browning starts
in the fall. This herbicide is tak
en into the plant’s system and
translocated in the rhizomes,
which are killed. Usually, the
last two weeks of October is
about as late as sprays are ef
fective.
Also, disking and plowing trou
ble spots during the winter will
help kill some of the bermuda
grass. “This exposes the rhi -
zones to a freezing-drying effect
and offers an excellent njeans of
reducing the rhizome popula
tion,” said Rogerson.
Running a spike-tooth harrow
over disked or plowed spots will
pul more of the rhizomes out.
They should be piled up and
burned or otherwise removed
from the field.
Next spring after the grass
starts growing and sending out
shoots, another application of
dalpon will give a good Mil.

“It will pay to work especially
hard on real trouble spots of
bermudagrass. They can be im
proved considerably by the com
bination of spraying, disking
plowing and harrowing,” Roger
son pointed out. i
He added that spraying dala
pon after the grass begins brown
ing in the fall or before leaves
appear in the spring helps very
little. This chemical is most ef
fective when the grass is green
and! actively growing. Similar
treatments are suggested! for
johnsongrass. It, too, spreads
by rhizomes. s
Rogerson said there was tittle
need fpr concern about planting
a crop following a spraying of
dalapon in the spring if correct
land preparation is followed and
moisture levels are adequate.
“Three days after spraying, pre
pare the seedbed by deep plow
ing and disking.”
Corn and soybeans can be
jpiabfted1 five days after land
preparation. Cotton can ba plant
ed immediately. One exception
to, this suggestion — under very
dry conditions — do not plant
until five days aftefr at least one
half inch rain.
The nutgrass problem can al
so be reduced by fall and winter
disking and plowing. This expos
es the nuts to freezing and dry
help control
in tell exactly what
« -urf are and; where they
are located. Putting them on
some kind of farm map for re
ference next spring will he help
ful in planning a control pro
gram," Rogerson said.
With the advent of a host of
chemical herbicides, controlling
weeds in farm crops has become
something akin to a doctor pre
scribing medicine for illness.
“If we know what spedee of
weeds are in a field and where
-they are located, we can usually
prescribed1 a good weed control
program,” Rogerson said, “but
it is essential to know what
plants we are dealing with and
where they are located.” r
County extension agents can
provide farmers with detailed
weed control information.
