5 methods to defeat Psoriasis for good.

Psoriasis is a skin condition that can develop on the scalp. Raised scaly patches and flaky skin that looks a bit like dandruff appear on the head. Unlike with normal dandruff, however, the scalp will appear to have a silvery sheen and dry scales.

It can affect a person's entire scalp or just develop in small patches. The condition is more common in adults, but it can also develop in children.

The National Psoriasis Foundation report that 2 to 3 percent of the population in the United States have psoriasis.

About half of the people who have psoriasis develop the condition on the scalp, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.
