You have something called "chronic plaque psoriasis" on your elbows and knees, but don't worry, we can treat it.
You'd definitely benefit from some light treatment to help your rash settle down.
I'd recommend coming up to the physiotherapy department twice a week to have UVB light treatment.
Are you arranging me to have a sunbed treatment, doctor?
Well... there are some similarities to sunbed treatment, but actually...
the lights that we have in hospitals are special and they admit only UVB light.
You will get a suntan through.
Sounds great. When can I start?
There is a bit of a waiting list, so I'll give you this cream to be getting on with first.
Take this form to the physiotherapy department and they'll book you in for six weeks of UVB treatment.
All the best then.
Thank you.
