Scalp Psoriasis Lumps

[AmandaL]

Sorry Fred, I tried answer the question. I still think what I said is valid. When we talk about psoriasis, when tend to talk about plaque psoriasis as the disease itself, instead of the result of another type of psoriasis.

As for scalp psoriasis I can only speak about myself. My plaque tends to form around edges of the scalp and hence it is thicker. I usually get clump in the middle and the rest is thinly spread out. When it really clumps up I typically have an infection.

To try to bring this post back on topic, as for why for psoriasis may clump more on the scalp than other parts of the body may be my more related to the disease and it's severity than a single district characteristic. Just my 2 cents, I might be wrong.

I think that's a bit of an unfair statement to make as many different types of Psoriasis are talked about throughout the forum. Obviously plaque is the most common which is why it is spoke about more often.

Interesting about the clumps appearing in the middle as that's where most of mine are at the moment. I'm slightly confused by your last comment though, what do you mean by "may be my more related to the disease and it's severity than a single district characteristic"
