I'm experiencing itchy scalp from months. It looks like scalp psoriasis on the back of my neck but i'm not sure what is it. There's a red and purplish patch which itches a lot and is increasing as I have peeled off the skin due to itching. It's also causing a lot of hair loss, more than 100 when I don't comb and an handful when I comb my hair. My hair were thick and now they have become too thin and rough. It feels rough when I apply anything on it. I've been applying aloe vera gel and coconut oil but its not making any changes. How can I remove it permanently from my scalp and neck? It's very depressing to see it and i'm unable to find a cure. I have pictures of affected area but there's no option to upload. Please suggest some ointment or cream to apply on it and if any shampoo can make a difference, also for the hairloss.
