About Åsa Kärrman

Åsa Kärrman - the author of How To Treat Palmoplantar Pustulosis NaturallyÅsa Kärrman
My name is Åsa Kärrman. I am a Swedish patient advocate, author, and the founder of the world's largest online support community for palmoplantar pustulosis, a condition I once could not walk with.
For years, PPP left me unable to do the things most people take for granted: walking to the shops, holding a coffee cup, doing my job. Doctors told me there was no cure and recommended medications with side effects that frightened me. I made a different choice.
Today, after more than 15 years completely symptom-free, I share everything I learned, so that no one else has to feel as alone and hopeless as I did.

Why You Can Trust What You Read Here

I want to be clear about who I am and what qualifies me to speak on this subject:

15+ Years of Personal Remission

I am not someone who had PPP mildly and got lucky. At my worst, I could not walk. I was misdiagnosed multiple times, including with scabies, before finally seeing a dermatologist. Today I have been completely symptom-free for over 15 years. That is not a short remission. It is a life rebuilt.

Author of the Leading Patient Guide on PPP

I wrote How to Treat Palmoplantar Pustulosis Naturally, the most comprehensive patient-authored guide on PPP available anywhere. The book has been read by thousands of patients worldwide and has received hundreds of verified reviews on Amazon, including from people who had lived with PPP for a decade with no relief.

Founder of a 2,500-Member Global Support Community

In 2016, I founded the Palmoplantar Pustulosis Global Support Group on Facebook. It now has over 2,500 members from around the world, patients, caregivers, and people newly diagnosed who had nowhere else to turn. The group has become one of the largest PPP communities on the internet

Over 11 Years Publishing on PPP

Well-Healed.com has been a dedicated resource for PPP patients for over 11 years. In that time I have answered thousands of questions, read the latest research, and stayed closely connected to what readers actually experience, not just what textbooks describe.

A Patient Perspective That Medicine Cannot Provide

I am not a dermatologist. I am something different: a person who lived with this disease at its most severe, found a way through it, and has spent years helping others do the same. No clinical study can replicate that kind of insight.

What I Believe

PPP is not just a skin condition. It is a signal from a body under stress, from immune dysregulation, from triggers that can often be identified and addressed. I believe in treating root causes, not just suppressing symptoms. I believe the body has a remarkable capacity to heal when given the right conditions. And I believe every person with PPP deserves honest, practical information, not just a prescription and a door closing behind them.

A Note on Medical Advice

​Everything on this site is based on my personal experience and independent research. I am not a doctor, and nothing here should replace the advice of a qualified healthcare professional. I always encourage people with PPP to work with a dermatologist alongside any lifestyle changes they make. What I offer is the patient perspective, the part that medicine often leaves out.

​The Book

When I was sick with Palmoplantar Pustulosis there wasn't a lot of information out there about PPP. After making my own research about the cause, the triggers, and how to heal naturally, it resulted in a book where I'm also telling my own Palmoplantar Pustulosis story and the measures I took to heal. The book is available in three formats such as hard copy, audiobook and e-book.
