I believe I am having scalp psoriasis which is different from normal dandruff as I am having big dandruff bumps on my scalp at different places. I am having flaky scalp due to which flakes fall when I sleep or comb. I had tried all home remedies but none work...nuetrogena coal tar shampoo helped to an extent to remove my outer area psoriasis but when I stopped using it the problem came back. Please suggest some permanent solution for it!
