1 Make an apple cider vinegar compress to treat psoriasis.
  • Dampen a towel with warm water and use as a compress.
  • Make a mixture of apple cider vinegar and warm water. Mix 1 part vinegar and 3 parts water.
  • Use a warm towel as a compress. Apply the apple cider vinegar mixture directly to the affected areas and keep the compress on the skin for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Apply relieving itching several times a day as needed. Apple cider vinegar oxidizes the pH level of the skin, thus reducing irritation.
  • 2 Use pure apple cider vinegar to soak your nails. Many people with psoriasis find that their toenails and fingernails are affected too. To treat these areas, soak them in a bowl of vinegar for 5 minutes daily.
  • 3 Apply vinegar overnight with a cotton ball. For itchy spots, soak a cotton ball in clean apple cider vinegar and apply to the affected area. Leave it on the skin overnight and wash it off in the shower in the morning.
  • Method 2 of 4: Bathing with Apple Cider Vinegar

    1. 1 Prepare a vinegar bath. Pour 2 cups (470 ml) apple cider vinegar into a tub of warm water.
    2. 2 Soak in the bathroom for 30 minutes.
    3. 3 Shower after bathing to remove any vinegar residue and odor.

    Method 3 of 4: Moisturize with apple cider vinegar

    1. 1 Add 2-3 drops of apple cider vinegar to 2 tbsp.l. (30 ml) regular hand cream. Apply to affected areas. Use no more than a few drops, as too much apple cider vinegar will dry out the skin if left on the skin for too long.

    Method 4 of 4: Drinking Apple Cider Vinegar

    1. 1 Prepare an apple cider vinegar tincture to drink. Mix 1 tbsp. (15 ml) apple cider vinegar and 1 cup water.
