Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder that affects both women and men of all ages [1]. Most commonly, it affects the skin on your scalp, knees and elbows, and your nails. Among different psoriasis types, oral psoriasis is less common and often overlooked. 

Oral psoriasis causes red inflammation both inside and outside your mouth, your cheeks, tongue, and sometimes gums. The causes of an oral psoriasis disease and its treatments can vary. So, it is vital to understand important facts to manage the disease effectively. Read on to know more about this condition.

How is oral psoriasis different from other psoriasis types?
In case of scalp psoriasis, treatment includes application of medicated shampoos, lotions and creams. To avoid such skin conditions, you can follow simple tips for healthy skin. This includes using moisturizers, avoiding hot baths, and protecting your skin from the sun. With these skincare tips for men and women, you can protect your skin from psoriasis and other skin issues. However, unlike psoriasis on your skin, oral psoriasis is very rare. It can cause immense discomfort owing to its place of occurrence. 

It normally affects the internal area of your mouth, which keeps you from eating properly. You may notice red and white patches on your tongue, also known as lesions. You can get treatment for these as soon as you notice them. Moreover, these patches do not spread fast. This allows you sufficient time to consult a specialist.

<h2>What are the top facts to keep in mind about this psoriasis disease?</h2>
Before you even ask ‘Is psoriasis curable?’, it is important to understand the problem and symptoms of oral psoriasis more closely. Here are a few facts to bear in mind:
<ul>
 	<li>In 90% of cases, psoriasis disease is categorized by plaque type of scales [2]. In case of oral psoriasis, it may be difficult to predict the symptoms as they range from mild to medium. However, plaque lesions may not occur in every case of oral psoriasis. </li>
 	<li>The sores inside and outside of your cheeks, mouth, and tongue can cause peeling of the skin on the gums. You may even notice blisters with pus and experience pain or a burning sensation, when eating spicy foods. </li>
 	<li>Skin flare-ups and rashes on the skin are also common in cases of oral psoriasis. They appear along with mouth lesions. Psoriasis is likely to show up on your skin immediately after you get it on the oral surfaces. So, its appearance on the skin can signal the problem and you can treat it as a red flag for oral psoriasis. Even if you have mild symptoms, your doctor may advise a skin test or a genetic test as this condition is an auto-immune disorder. </li>
 	<li>Oral psoriasis can affect your lips in many cases, causing inflammation and bleeding [3]. It can further lead to itching and severe discomfort. However, it heals fast as compared to oral psoriasis occurring in the mouth or on the inside cavity of your cheeks. </li>
</ul>
<h2>How to cure oral psoriasis?</h2>
Treatment in general is meant to keep the symptoms at bay and stop the recurrence of psoriasis disease. To treat this condition, you can apply antiseptic creams, follow certain home remedies, and take some basic medications. These techniques reduce the aggravation of symptoms and may ease your discomfort. 

Doctors usually prescribe steroids to reduce inflammation and itching, and cyclosporine capsules in case of severe symptoms. In addition to this, here are a few simple home remedies you can follow. 
<ul>
 	<li>Rinse your mouth with a mixture of lukewarm water and salt</li>
 	<li>Avoid eating spicy foods when symptoms are present </li>
 	<li>Stop smoking to reduce the symptoms from worsening</li>
</ul>
Once you are aware of the symptoms of oral psoriasis, it is easier to keep an eye on signs that require you to visit a doctor. Do not hesitate to talk to a specialist near you if you notice such symptoms. Book an online appointment or an in-person consult with a dermatologist on Bajaj Finserv Health. This way you can address oral psoriasis before it worsens and maintain your oral health.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder that causes inflammation in your joints resulting in severe joint pain. Though there is no complete cure for RA, early diagnosis and treatment can help you manage your RA symptoms better. Your doctor may ask you to undergo a couple of blood tests after assessing your symptoms. 

A physical examination and imaging tests may also be required to confirm RA. Here are some of the common symptoms observed in RA: 
<ul>
 	<li>Pain and swelling in your joints</li>
 	<li>Fever</li>
 	<li>Stiffness (especially during mornings)</li>
 	<li>Fatigue</li>
</ul>
Here are some of the common tests for rheumatoid arthritis prescribed by doctors.

<h2>Evaluate joint inflammation with an ESR test</h2>
This is one of the important tests for rheumatoid arthritis that checks for any inflammation in your body. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate test can assess how quickly red blood cells get separated from other blood cells. In this test, your blood cells are treated with a substance that prevents clotting. When your body has inflammation, the erythrocytes or red blood cells may clump together. This separates these cells from other blood cells, and results in a high ESR. If ESR levels are low, it indicates low inflammation levels. However, apart from inflammation, high levels of ESR may also occur when you have any other injury or infection [1]. Therefore, this test cannot be used as the only diagnostic test for RA.
<h2>Measure rheumatoid factor proteins using the RA factor test</h2>
RA factors are proteins in the immune system that are capable of attacking your own cells. During viral infections, the immune system protects the body from pathogens. Sometimes, RA factors attack healthy cells and cause autoimmune disorders. An RA test helps in measuring these proteins in your blood to determine if you have RA or not. Autoimmune conditions can be diagnosed using this test. The presence of rheumatoid factor may indicate RA [2].
<h2>Determine the amount of CRP in your blood with the help of CRP test</h2>
This test check for the levels of C-reactive protein in your blood. This is a protein produced by the liver and is released when you have any infection. CRP helps your immune system respond to an infection that results in inflammation. High levels of CRP may indicate RA. However, this cannot be the deciding test for an RA diagnosis.

<h2>Check if you have abnormal proteins using the CCP antibodies test</h2>
CCP antibodies are called autoantibodies that are capable of attacking healthy tissues and cells. These abnormal proteins are found in almost 60-80% of people suffering from RA. With a CCP test, doctors can detect these antibodies for RA confirmation. This test also helps in determining the severity of RA. High CCP levels indicate that the disease is progressing rapidly and can result in joint damage. A CCP test is always combined with a RF test. A positive result for both tests indicates a higher risk of RA. 
<h2>Determine the levels of unusual antibodies with the ANA test</h2>
Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) attack your body’s healthy cells and tissues. If there are ANAs in your blood, you may suffer from autoimmune conditions. Getting this test done may help confirm an RA diagnosis.
<h2>Do a CBC test to evaluate different cells in your body</h2>
A complete blood count helps in measuring different types of cells in your body. These cells include white blood cells, platelets and red blood cells. If there is no inflammation, your body produces the appropriate number of healthy cells depending on the function. In case of RA, these numbers can be disrupted. However, you cannot rely only on this test for an RA diagnosis.

Usually, doctors prescribe multiple tests for proper diagnosis of this condition. With the help of these blood tests, you can check for inflammation in your body. For further confirmation, you may be asked to undergo certain imaging tests as well. You can book your blood tests on Bajaj Finserv Health and get your RA assessment done at the right time. Get your results checked by expert specialists and manage your RA symptoms on time.

Your thyroid controls the rate of many activities including how fast you burn calories or how fast your heart beats [1]. There are several common thyroid problems including hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. The former is a disorder where your thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones. Hyperthyroidism is a thyroid disease where your thyroid gland produces more hormones than your body needs. Managing hypothyroidism requires taking medications and making lifestyle changes.
Hypothyroidism is a common type of thyroid disorder. It arises due to poor diet and other lifestyle factors. Its treatment requires taking thyroxine supplements every day. However, making dietary and lifestyle changes can help in managing signs of hypothyroidism. Similarly, a variety of conditions including autoimmune disorders can cause hyperthyroidism. Read on to know the lifestyle changes that help in managing hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and other thyroid problems.

<h2 class="western" lang="en-GB">Check your intake of iodine</h2>
The functioning of your thyroid gland is dependent on iodine. A lack of the mineral in your diet may lead to a thyroid disease such as hypothyroidism. Iodine deficiency is also a cause of goiter, which causes improper development of the thyroid gland [2]. Over 90% of such cases worldwide are linked to lower consumption of iodine. Having an adequate amount of iodine helps in the proper regulation of this gland. Thus, iodine is an important nutrient for your body. Some good sources of iodine include: 

<ul>
 	<li>
iodized salt
</li>
 	<li>
seafood
</li>
 	<li>
yogurt
</li>
 	<li>
cheese
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>
Eat less sugar
</li>
</ul>
Take a step towards cutting down the amount of sugar you have. Eating high amounts of sugar is not good for your health. It may lead to inflammations, which may affect your thyroid function. It can slow down the conversion of T4 to T3 [3], the active thyroid hormone in your body. It can also worsen the symptoms of hypothyroidism. So, reduce sugar in your diet for managing hypothyroidism.
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8170" src="https://wp-staging.bajajfinservhealth.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/61.png" alt="" width="4001" height="3294" />

<h2 class="western" lang="en-GB">Watch your diet</h2>
Make sure you eat well-balanced meals every day to keep your thyroid symptoms at bay. Ask your doctor which foods are good for your thyroid function. You may need to avoid certain foods to improve your health. Do not eat:

<ul>
 	<li>
soy-based foods
</li>
 	<li>
vegetables like cauliflower, cabbage, broccoli
</li>
 	<li>
frozen meat
</li>
 	<li>
processed foods
</li>
</ul>
Instead, increase intake of foods rich in omega-3 which can help your thyroid, such as: 

<ul>
 	<li>
fish
</li>
 	<li>
eggs
</li>
 	<li>
milk products
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li>
Manage your weight
</li>
</ul>
The right weight for your height and age keeps you healthy. People who are overweight require more thyroid hormones. Reducing weight may improve the health of those who are obese and have a borderline thyroid function. Obesity increases the risk of thyroid cancer and losing weight can lower its risks [4]. 

<h2 class="western" lang="en-GB">Go gluten-free </h2>
Foods processed from wheat, barley, and other grains contain a protein called gluten. It is one of the factors that cause celiac disease, which is associated with hypothyroidism. It is better to switch to a gluten-free diet if you are suffering from [5]:

<ul>
 	<li>
celiac disease
</li>
 	<li>
hypothyroidism
</li>
 	<li>
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
</li>
</ul>
Foods that are rich in gluten increase inflammation, which worsens the symptoms of thyroid disease.

<h2 class="western" lang="en-GB">Limit alcohol and caffeine</h2>
Drinking alcohol in moderation doesn’t cause much damage to your thyroid gland. However, excessive consumption can affect thyroid function severely. When you cut down on caffeine, you can can lower the stress on your thyroid gland too. Do not drink more than one cup of coffee a day for best results. 

<h2 class="western" lang="en-GB">Meditate and prevent stress</h2>
The resistance of thyroid receptor cells to thyroid hormones can increase due to stress. It can also weaken your immune system. Due to excess stress, your thyroid function also works below optimum levels. So, manage your stress. Do yoga, take a walk, or read a book. This may soothe your thyroid gland. Thyroid problems like hypothyroidism can also lead to anxiety and depression. Practicing meditation can help in this regard.

You can also book crucial thyroid tests on the platform in minutes. All this can help you manage thyroid issues better.

Lab tests are often part of routine checkups to analyze your health. Your doctor may prescribe a lab test to diagnose certain medical conditions, monitor diseases, or plan treatment [1]. For this, labs collect a sample of your blood, urine, or body tissues, and analyze them to determine your health status. 
It is better to undergo a regular full-body health checkup including lab tests to keep your health on track. For instance, with a single blood sample, you can undergo the following tests.

<ul>
 	<li>
Complete blood count test
</li>
 	<li>
Basic metabolic panel
</li>
 	<li>
Lipid panel
</li>
 	<li>
Hemoglobin test
</li>
</ul>
Similarly, a urine test may include the following.

<ul>
 	<li>
Pregnancy test
</li>
 	<li>
Rapid urine test [2]
</li>
</ul>
Lab test fees are often costly. In fact, a survey conducted in 2018 reported a difference of over 1000% in medical test prices across cities in India. For example, a simple lipid profile test can cost as low as Rs.90 and as high as Rs.7,110 [3]. But rising prices should not deter you from booking important tests.
