Scalp Psoriasis

Posted Wed 8 Jan 2020 14.41 by Arsenal2020

Hi, this is my first post here. I am 19 and suffer with severe scalp psoriasis. I also have psoriasis on my elbows and arms, I treat this with Enstilar foam which works for me. But for obvious reasons using the foam on my head is near on impossible. Has anyone had any scalp treatments that work for them? TIA

The best thing that the dermatologist prescribed me was tar pomade! They made it at the hospital. It calmed mine down slightly

Thanks for the reply KatenicolW! I have met with my dermatologist and he has prescribed me Eteivex & Capasal Shampoos and Cocois ointment. Hopefully this works!!
