Does anyone have scalp/hair issues?

I've had all three.  I'm not sure if my hair loss was due to vitamin difficiency, meds, or genes.  My mother's hair is thinning and not coming back.  My loss has always slowed and thickened back to pre-thinning days.

For years I've had a small patch of psoraisis at the base of my scalp.  In the past few months, the psoraisis has diminished and been replaced by huge patches that look more like exzema (sp?).  I had exzema as a baby......Not sure if this is the same thing.  But I've also had patches come up on my eyelids.  It's slowly going away on my face, but it remains on my scalp.

I've used Head&Shoulders Intensive Solutions twice this week and will continue to see if it helps.  The guy that does my hair suggested it--he said it worked for him.......we'll see.

I might have a few patches of something or another on my crown. I've had an itchy spot for about a year or so. It expanded when I went on Entocort and at the moment appears to be gone. But I think it recurs.

I also have a very itchy spot that kind of erupts every now and then on my upper right thigh. Only about 1/8" dia. This started about the same time. Maybe these were among the first signs my immune system was running amok.

Hair loss and some type of scalp condition, itchy & small scabs. I use psoriasis tar shampoo which helps, but doesn't fix. I have bad skin in general.

Hi I been having some problems with getting bitten by black flies seems a lot harder to heal them then it did before. Now the hair lost I had lost quite a bit starting in Jan. but doing better now and it is growing in.lol gail

I have seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp and some on my face -- itchy, flaky, and very oily skin.  My hair used to be dry when I was younger but now it's very oily.  I also get some acne on top of my head from all the oil (I'm 36 and don't have acne anywhere else).

I started having a problem with seborrheic dermatitis a couple months after I started Humira. I get a dry, flaky, sometimes itchy scalp and dry patches of skin in the center of my face. My dermatologist seems to think it is linked to the Humira, and it often flares up the day after an injection. I have kept it under control for the most part using Plexion wipes on my face, DHS Sal shampoo (non-prescription), and occasionally Olux foam for my scalp.

I've had psoriasis on my extremities, hands, feet, head. Best solution for the head is DONT PICK! I know it is soooo tough but if you do you'll end up with bald spots. I also suggest the olive oil because I use vasoline on my feet and that does the trick better than any medicine they've given me.

 

I have had scalp issues for several years.....the tar shampoo helps but I think I will try the Olive Oil.  I have experienced relief on the Pred and when I was taking allergy shots (I stopped with my last flare because my immune system was very weak).
