Scalp psoriasis is a chronic condition that tends to come and go. Even if it clears for a while, it needs ongoing maintenance to prevent flares. Regular use of prescribed medicated shampoos or lotions even when the scalp looks normal can help keep it under control
Next Steps
Consult for better management approach
