Sir, I am 42 yrs male, was diagnosed for scalp psoriasis since last 2-3 month (appx.) on my back head. Dr advised Scalp lotion & Lotion of Coal tar, Sycalic Acid. Also advised orally Omega Acid tab & Vitamin A capsule daily & Oncotrex 10 on weekly. The scalp psoriasis got almost cured after medication of 15 days medicine & 2 dose of Oncotrex 10. Should these be continued & for how long. I am also having diabitise diagnosed last 2 years back. My Doctor says Psoriasis will spread with every change of weather. Please advise.
Hi, Thanks for writing in. The condition you are suffering is Psoriasis. It is a genetic condition. It can be kept under controlled with treatment. Can re-occur with stress or infection.  Treatment you are given is correct continue it for at least 2 months. You can stop applying lotions on scalp. Only continue with oral medication.  Also, supportive oral tablets containing omega 6 FA and multivitamin can be helpful. It can come back in winter season. Do not allow scalp to be Chat Doctor.  Hope this helps. Regards
