Hello Caldrive,I also have plaque psoriasis and on my scalp.I use a steroid shampoo Clobetasol (prescription)I try to use it when my scalp gets really bad.I also have plaques behind my ears and on my back.Also back of my legs.I moisture several times a day as my skin is so dry.I am currently on Enbrel 50mg shot every Sat.It has helped my Psoriatic Arthritis but slow going on my body.I have been on Enbrel for 4 months so I will give it time to work.Thank goodness all my scales are not seen,they are in places no one can see.I am dreading summer when out comes my bathing suit.Oh well I will go swimming anyway.I use T-gel in between the steroid shampoo.As steroids thin the skin and scalp.I did order dead sea salt on line and bathe 3 times a week with it.I even got bar soap from the same place.Dead Sea Salt Warehouse.I get a 5lb bucket for about $25 and the bar soap is $20 for 4 bars.I was using Epson Salt but was told it has magnesium in it. I am pre-diabetic and was told to not use it.I have lost some weight and that may help my A1C count to go down. to our group and you will find some very nice people here.I have learned a lot from them.Oh I am not pitching the dead sea salt it's what I use.I enjoy soaking in my tub with it.
