Hi,
Psoriasis is an autoimmune chronic and relapsing skin disease. It is a controllable disease. Total cure is less likely. There are so many drugs and methods to control the disease. However, I would like to answer your query about vitamin E.Vitamin E is wonderful vitamin having antioxidant properties. You may take vitamin E cap 400 mg daily. Even, for hair growth, it may be taken. It's oil may be applied directly on the scalp.
I hope this would help you.
Thanks.
