stop saying "speak to your doctor" honestly the reason we are watching you is cos we are not speaking to our doctor! I mean that in the nicest possible way.
I lived with scalp psoriasis for over 40 years. Then one day I decided to try a low carb diet and shockingly my psoriasis disappeared. The flakes from my hair use to rain down on my chair at work. I always felt so embarrassed. I bought every medication and nothing worked long term. Who knew the cure was in my gut all along. Today I can use everyday shampoos, I've kept my scalp scrubber since that works but I've never gone back to overindulging in carbs.
If you don't stop the psoriasis your hair will thin and if you lose enough you can go bald. If you start curing or removing the flakes your hair will stop falling. 1) You can oil your scalp to soften the psoriasis and use a scalp scrubber to remove it. 2) stop eating a lot of carbs (no rice, no potato, no items made of wheat) eat a lot of veggies and protein. Wash hair at least once a week. Do diet for at least two months and see if it makes a difference. You should see it stop in one month. Eat very little carbs after that. You can have some but not a lot otherwise your psoriasis will come back. If nothing works, see your doctor.
Topical creams, ointments and shampoos are not getting to the cause of the problem, just treating the symptoms. Likely diet and gut issues are the cause.
not all Americans have the financial stability to visit the doctors.. one check up and I’m making monthly payments for something I could have done for myself if I was given the educational benefit instead of paying someone else to do the bare minimum.
zinc is excellent for all skin problems. You can buy the diaper cream that is not as thick as the plain zinc cream. However, it's not easy to get rid off the hair. It can be used around the hairline.
Thanks, very helpful. I first had an outbreak of psoriasis in my late 20s and it was terrible. I had to use several different forms of medication. Since then, I’ve been able to manage with just shampoos, but it’s good to note that you should check these products if your pregnant or nursing because many you can’t use during pregnancy.
Dr. O'Donovan, you are an absolute Angel for helping people with information like this scalp psoriasis vlog. One of my relatives had regular psoriasis on her elbows, but was very fortunate not to have it on scalp. She used Vitamin D cream on her elbows, and it helped greatly. Thanks again for all the many interesting topics you cover to help your YT viewers... who share your info. with family members and others.
@@NuCreature8 The relative was not a sister. And, no, I do not know exactly which Vitamin D prescription cream was used. It was 15 years ago; and that relative has passed so can't ask. You can check with your doctor to see what is available now. Fifteen years ago, I'm thinking there was only one available because it was a new type of treatment then.
wait so.. there are genuinely shampoos you can buy that will help scalp psoriasis without having to go to the doctor? cause if so ill genuinely buy something to help because ive gone through about 5 different shampoos within 6 months due to agitation. the one im using right now is Aveeno ph balanced shampoo and it seems to be okay? im also using a scalp massager to massage my scalp everytime i wash my hair. also genuine question, should i wash my my hair multiple times a week or only once a week? like would multiple washes a week benefit my scalp in any way? sorry for so many questions, my scalp is just horrible and its just not getting any better
Hi please go and speak to your local pharmacist or check out the descriptions I posted in the descriptor box for specific shampoos. If it doesn’t settle with over the counter shampoos then yes I’d say you need To see you doctor.
Sir , i dont know whether i have scalp psoriasis or not but this problem i have since last 10-15 year. When i got to know about my itchy scalp i consulted to doctor. He gave me some cream (don't know exactly), then the scalp problem is cure but after some time same situation occurs, next time doctor suggest me to use selenium sulfide shampoo for lifetime, but problem is not solved, when i use shampoo scalp stops ething but after some time same situation happen again, What should I do now..?
I was suffering from psoarisis in my whole body from 7 years. I tried everything like allopathic, homeopathy, ayurvedic medicines but nothing worked better. But from last 1 year i am taking home made ayurvedic powder from hakimji. It works very well. My body is 70-80% clear now. I feel very relaxed now. Tons of thanks to hakimji 🙏🙏
Hey, from Norway here, i am treating mt scalp problem with Fast shampoo, it seems to work on a degree snd i no longer have itchy scalp but now on year 2 using it i notice my hair is not itchy but i still produce more scalp then i did before i started any treatments, and i usually try to shower evry 2 days because too often is not recommended and if i shower 2 days in a row, one of em i dont use any chemicals to treat my hair, so it can rest. I’ve tryed ACO Scalp shampoo bit it seeemd to Worsen it, tryed it for a year, could use some Expert advice, my doctor just says, everyone has that problem and doesn’t care 😅
Hi doctor, i am suffering from 10 years and without using topical corticosteroids i am unable to manage psoriasis on scalp. Shall i continue with steroids lifelong because shampoos and all are not that much helpful?

Finally some one said this
100%, even some dermatologists, you walk in and walk back out the same, as in no real effort to try and help you/better understand the issue.
@@gabrielcavaller4724walk in there and pay $600 just for them to say use shampoo
Most help I had was with a Trichologist. I couldn't believe how much help it was, after years and years of suffering.
Stevezm100...he probably is doing it so that he isn't held liable for giving advice that causes a problem for someone...
I hate the word treatment i dont want treatment i want a fucking cure!
You really need to calm down

Hello, I'm 21 and I'm diagnosed with this. My hair is falling rapidly, I've a concern: Will this make me go bald? Please reply

Who the hell can speak to their doctor in the U.K.? It is impossible to find one that you speak to. They have disappeared into the ether since Covid.
What is the difference between psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp?
sir also talk about hair fall by psoriasis
