scalp is one of the most common areas of psoriasis, and it is also the earliest or only site for some psoriasis patients to have disease in life. However, it can also be accompanied by rashes on the trunk, limbs, etc., and is one of the more difficult parts to treat. Patients also need to shave their hair in order to facilitate treatment. It doesn’t matter if male comrades are very troubled. Today, I will teach you a method. You might as well try
combed hair smoothly: Comb hair smoothly before shampooing, which will help prevent the hair from being broken during cleaning and causing psoriasis hair loss .
Use warm water: Soak your hair with warm water. The water temperature is best at around 40 degrees to avoid the irritation of psoriasis on the head by excessive water temperature and prevent the expansion of the skin lesions and the increase of dander.
You can't grasp it hard: rub the appropriate amount of shampoo with both hands and apply it on your hair, and then gently massage the scalp with the abdomen of your fingers. This can promote blood circulation in the scalp, remove dandruff and oil, and then wash the scalp clean. Do not scratch the scalp with your nails, so as not to scratch the scalp and cause head infection and worsen psoriasis.
Correct use of shampoo: thoroughly clean the hair with warm water, and then use some shampoo in moderation (you can choose coal tar lotion or antibacterial solution, which is very friendly to psoriasis on the head). Patients with psoriasis on the head must massage for a certain period of time according to the product instructions. Do not let the shampoo stay on the hair for too long to avoid damage to the hair, and pay special attention to reducing irritation to the skin lesions. Generally, you can wash the shampoo with warm water after one or two minutes.
Proper blow-dry: Use a cotton towel to suck the hair dry after cleaning, and be sure to avoid using too much force. At the same time, patients with psoriasis on the head are reminded to use a hair dryer. Do not let the high temperature blow directly on the hair to reduce the stimulation of psoriasis. It is best to keep a distance of 10 to 15 cm. And don't last too long. Generally, just blow dry your scalp and let your hair dry naturally.
Use medicine: After the scalp is dry, you can ask your family to help you apply medicine (such as kapotriol liniment), gently peel off the hair and apply it to the skin lesions. Don’t rush to close it. Wait for 30 seconds to let the medicine penetrate deep into the bottom. Close it. Use this method to apply all lesions on the scalp.
This method is used continuously for 2-3 months, and the effect is significant. I have compiled the "Guidelines for Preventing Recurrence of Scalp Psoriasis" and told me that I will send it to you.
