Hi, the right way of applying onion in scalp psoraisis is: take an onion and slice it into pieces. Soak these onion pieces in the rum for a few hours to prepare a mixture. Use this solution as massage oil and apply it by rubbing over the scalp using fingertips. Be aware of the fingernails which may scratch out the scalp and worsen the condition. This head massage promotes hair growth by stimulating hair follicles, while the mixture of onion and rum clears off the dry scalp problem. Apart from this, look for ingredients in lotions, gels, and shampoos that fight fungus or reduce inflammation, such as: coal tar, zinc pyrithione, ketoconazole. If you want something to cool or numb your scalp, try products with camphor, menthol, acetyl alcohol, aloe vera, or benzyl alcohol.
