Scalp Psoriasis

Does anyone have any advice about how to help scalp psoriasis? My partner has it fairly moderately on the back of his head, ear to ear, as he is a man with short hair it's fairly obvious. He got really frustrated with it the other day and it was the first time in quite a few years I saw that frustration and sadness come out of him because he's generally confident and not that bothered about it.

I said that it's fine, it's not a big deal and I think he's gorgeous, which obviously doesn't actually help the problem he has!!

Does anyone have and tips I can advise him on? He uses T gel when he washes his hair but that's it, he doesn't use anything else like creams etc and I don't know if that's even an option? He has v short hair around the back so could put cream on it without interfering with his hair. He has played around with his diet to help in the past, cutting out dairy and it hasn't really helped. He hasn't always had it and said it started probably about 6 years ago!

My mum uses body shop ginger shampoo, it's the only thing that works for her.
Goodness I forgot about this gem ... off to purchase 😁
