Dandruff or Scalp Psoriasis?

My concern is this dandruff problem i had for months. i dont know if i should categorise it as dandruff or scalp psoriasis.

about a year ago, i started having dandruff on my scalp. however one region at the back of my head started getting worse. the dandruff became a bump and the skin flakes like normal dandruff.

what i did was just peeled/scratched it off but a few days later, a kind of scab developed and i have to keep peeling it eversince. i tried all kinds of dandruff shampoos on the market but none of it seems to work at all.

after peeling the scab off it will usually form again after a manner of hours. it itches hence the constant need to scratch/peel it.

after peeling i can feel moisture like how it is when you peel a normal scab from your skin and see a kind of clear reddish liquid that i assume would be platelets trying to heal the open wound. the bump is abt 3mm in diameter. the flake/scab is white on certain days and a little brownish on some.

sometimes it gets really thick and the diameter is a little bigger but sometimes it is just like a thin layer. maybe some advice on this would be good as i do not have a clue what to do about it.

Psoriasis or Dandruff?
by: Zac

Hi,

I know exactly what you are talking about. I have had the same symptoms myself.

I also tried every dandruff shampoo I could, but to no avail. Shampoos simply aren't in contact long enough to provide effective therapy.

What I use now, and have completely cleared my scalp up is FlakeFree hair gel which has active ingredients like zinc, and tea tree oil which remain in contact with my scalp.

It also comes in a lotion which I use on my skin.
It smells great, and has solved all of my skin and scalp problems.

Check it out, it's on the featured products page right here!

Best wishes,
Zac
