I have observed that my psoriasis will itch to differing degrees depending on where I am.  My scalp bothers me less in moist, warm-to-hot climates and it bothers me more in dry, colder climates.  So the ideal climate for my scalp to feel it’s best would most likely be anywhere around a California beach.

Having to move to a beach in California is a difficult proposition, but I think I’ll learn to deal with it eventually (-;

As of now I live in Phoenix, Arizona which is the driest, hottest climate I could possibly ask for.  The pollution cloud that hangs over the city probably doesn’t help either.

Right now my scalp is telling me that a little less head and a little more moisture would be help to alleviate that dull, dry itching feeling I feel right on the top of my head.  On a positive note, though, the sunlight really helps.  As long as I’m sweating enough for moisture’s sake, the sunlight can really help to squelch the itch of my psoriasis laden scalp  (I mentioned this in a previous post).

Speaking of moving to a beach in California, I have also noticed that regular sea water sooths my scalp itch.  I suspect that this results from a combination of the the cleansing / moisturizing qualities of natural sea water.  I can research this more (or you can), but I suspect that sea water has a variety of helpful minerals (including a ton of salt, of course).
