10Home Remedies for Scalp Psoriasis
Some home remedies to help manage the symptoms of scalp psoriasis include:
– Tea tree oil shampoo: This type of oil contains some antiseptic properties that may help alleviate the symptoms.
– Apple cider vinegar: You can apply this solution directly to your scalp to ease itchiness caused by psoriasis. However, irritation may occur. To prevent this, you should mix it with water in 1:1 ratio or rise your scalp thoroughly once the vinegar dries.
– Oregon grape: You can use topical creams with 10% Oregon grape to treat mild or moderate case of scalp psoriasis.
– Dead Sea salts: You may add this salt to a warm bath to help alleviate scaling and itchiness.
– Turmeric: The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin. You may apply a curcumin gel to help alleviate the symptoms of scalp psoriasis.
Before using any of these home remedies, make sure to consult your healthcare provider first to avoid skin irritation or possible interaction with other medications. [10]
