Psoriasis: You may wish to consult a rheumatologist or dermatologist to discuss what options are available for treating your condition. Pcp can discuss methods for relieving stress, including possible medication.

Stress certainly...: ...Worsens psoriasis (and many other medical conditions). Effective treatments for scalp are very different from those for genital area. Your best option is to consult a dermatologist with expertise in psoriasis treatment, as there are numerous options available. Non-prescription medications, in my experience, are ineffective; don't waste your money on them.
