Brief Answer:
Do you mean scalp psoriasis

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM.
I have gone through your query.
I think you mean to say scalp psoriasis.
The disease can not be cured, but it can only be controlled.
I would have advised you to use scalp solution containing Salicylic acid and Coal tar, these products are available as over the counter product. It is effective and safe.

There are many prescription based agents, but for that you have to consult the doctor for further help.

Hope this helps.
I'll be glad to clarify your further queries.
Take care.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
