Scalp psoriasis is a chronic condition that is often triggered or worsened by certain factors such as stress, smoking and alcohol consumption. It is very important to treat scalp psoriasis and monitor the symptoms for other conditions. Scalp psoriasis is linked with chronic inflammation, which also happens with other health issues like obesity, arthritis, high cholesterol, heart disease and insulin resistance.

Scalp psoriasis is a common condition that makes raised, reddish and often scaly patches on the scalp. This can spread to your forehead, back and neck as well. One cannot catch scalp psoriasis from another person. Doctors believe that scalp psoriasis occurs when something is wrong with the immune system that causes the skin cells to grow quickly and build up into patches. You are likely to experience this condition if it runs in your family.

Symptoms of mild scalp psoriasis might include only slight, fine scaling. Symptoms of moderate to severe scalp psoriasis include – 

  • Dandruff-like flaking
  • Dry scalp
  • Itching
  • Scaly, red and bumpy patches
  • Silvery-white scales
  • Hair loss
  • Burning or soreness

Once you notice this, you should immediately consult a doctor for further treatment.

Living with Scalp Psoriasis

If you have scalp psoriasis, you might experience scaly patches of skin on different areas of the scalp. These patches tend to cause major discomfort because they are so itchy. Those who do not deal with this problem typically assume that the solution is to use shampoos and conditioners that can treat and prevent dandruff. But scalp psoriasis is different from dandruff as it starts within your immune system.

The cure for scalp psoriasis is currently not known, but proper and timely treatment can help manage symptoms, control the flare-ups and prevent it from coming back. People who follow the treatment plan for scalp psoriasis rarely have to endure severe scalp psoriasis for long. Psoriasis support groups offer valuable tips and suggestions to help the treatments work better and ease the sadness and stress that this condition causes.
