What type of treatments are used for Psoriasis?

  1. Antibiotic therapy

  2. UV light therapy

  3. Topical steroids

  4. Oral medications

The correct answer is: UV light therapy

UV light therapy is the most common and effective treatment for psoriasis because it slows down the excessive skin cell growth and decreases inflammation. Antibiotic therapy is not used for psoriasis as it is an autoimmune condition, not an infection. Topical steroids can be used to relieve symptoms, but they do not address the underlying cause of psoriasis. Oral medications may be prescribed for severe cases, but they can have more serious side effects and are not the first line of treatment for psoriasis.
