What triggers psoriasis flare ups ?

[Kat]

I haven't found any triggers for me. I've expected a time or two during stressful situations to notice a flare but since it now seems to be confined to my ears and scalp area I haven't really been able to associate bad days with any trigger, including stress. Other than showering, that always makes my scalp worse immediately afterwards. I AM trying to go to cooler water but I so enjoy a hot shower. I don't use coconut oil on my scalp often as it's a pain to wash out so I use it behind the ears and only along the hairline, but I did find a shampoo and conditioner with coconut oil in it that does seem to help.

As for food, I haven't tried to stop eating one thing or another to see if it helps.
