What is psoriasis and why does it affect the scalp?
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the skin's cell renewal process. In psoriasis, this process is accelerated, leading to a build-up of skin cells resulting in red patches, scaling and itching. The scalp is a common site for psoriasis flare-ups, and it can be particularly annoying as it is very visible and can affect your hair and scalp health.
