Is there a cure for psoriasis in the scalp?

isn’t there lotions/medication to use for psoriasis?

I have had psoriasis most of my life. Right now, it’s only on my foot, and I use Taclonex, which is an ointment. It works wonders, but is very expensive. My mom has psoriasis all over her scalp and her dermatologist gave her a special cream to treat it, which seems to be working. I can’t think of the name of it now, but I will find out.

Find a quiality Omega suppliment and take lots of it

It cured mine completely

I have psoriasis on one of my elbows and I feel your pain.. it gets so itchy it bleeds, as well. Sorry you have it on your scalp, that sucks. :\ That Neutrogena tar shampoo is supposed to be good. They also have some oral medications now for some types of psoriasis. Any sort of decent cream or something like that, you’ll have to get a prescription for, but I imagine it’d be hard to apply on your scalp.

I’ve tried store-brand antihistamine cream and it didn’t seem to be effective at all. I use a good antihistamine cream (prescription from Italy), sometimes a mousse-like corticosteroid (can’t remember the name) if it’s really bad. I do have a tube of Dovonex, but it’s Vaseline-like and I can’t seem to apply it with any regularity.

The Dovonex is a vitamin D solution; some studies show that sunlight can cause psoriasis to clear up. UV rays and vitamin D seem to have an effect. You can go to a tanning booth or get a sun lamp for SAD and expose your scalp for a few minutes a day.

I’ve found alternating Nizoral and T-Gel shampoos every other day to be very effective.

Milk Thistle, magnesium chloride, for instance.
Good luck.
