Hi! Can anyone recommend anything for scalp psoriasis? I’ve tried lotions from the GP, various shampoos, nothing works. It’s embarrassing when I head is so flakey, any ideas would be appreciated x

Betnovate scalp application or similar works, but mine keeps coming back, can't wait for summer when sun helps my scalp & liaisons on face until winter then back on the above.

Hi, everyone is different and things will work differently for each person!
I use Polytar shampoo on my scalp and I wash my hair everyday.
If using conditioner make sure only on the ends of your hair.
During the day or night use a sweet almond oil on your scalp and leave for as long as possible.
Try not to pick or scratch. I learnt the hard way and now have scarring.
I have also been prescribed Enstilar Foam and this has worked for me.

Hi guys .
For someone who has suffered with years of terrible scalp psoriasis I thought I’d share this to hopefully help others
I’ve used dovobet for years. Does the job but I was having to reapply every 3 days. Trying to get it out of my thick hair has been a nightmare!
I joined the hype and bought some rosemary oil ( nature spell) for hair growth purposes . Comes with the handiest applicator and smells great.
Used it a couple times a week and noticed my psoriasis drastically improved . The flakes are minimal.
I’ve gone from using dovobet consistently for years to not having to use it for nearly 6 months!
It’s honestly changed my life !
I remember giving absolutely anything a go so I really do hope it helps others ( leave on overnight and washes out in one go )
Thanks and fingers crossed xx
