Psoriasis
Psoriasis is usually a more severe
problem than the above and affects about 3% of the
population. It is not contagious but can be passed on
through the family.
It is usually seen as silvery flaky scales on the scalp or
anywhere on the body. The more serious cases of psoriasis
should be referred to a doctor for treatment.
Doctors often prescribe steroid creams to help cure the
problem. People have recently been praising the use of
evening primrose oil to try and treat the problem.
Women taking this as a daily supplement have reported
excellent improvement in their skin as well as in their
general well being.
