General Health Information

The type of psoriasis that most commonly appears on the scalp is psoriasis seborrheic.
This is the same strain that causes cradle cap in babies and minor
dandruff in teenagers and adults. Psoriasis symptoms of this kind
include an intense itching of the scalp and painful red lesions that
frequently seem to hurt for no reason. When this type of psoriasis
appears on other parts of the body it is called plaque psoriasis.
