Psoriasis

[lostsoul1989]

My 9 year old daughter, has what looks like psoriasis on her scalp (her dads side of the family all suffer from this)

Does anyone know of some good shampoo and conditioners to use?

She loves her hair so don't want to make it really obvious.

TIA

It would be worth getting her scalp eyeballed by a GP. It might make little difference right now, because if it's manifesting as scaly scalp then maneagement is pretty much the same whether it's psoriasis, eczema or scurf.

But getting a proper diagnosis might be useful, in case it starts appearing on other parts of the body too.

I'd start with shampoos like t-gel and other coal tar based ones (sold for dandruff, but don't both with other dandruff formulations). If that doesn't help, try alphosyl

Yeah I sent some photos over today so just waiting for a consultation.
