...Itching for a Cure

How Far Does Psoriasis Spread?

Written by Psoriasis Guru on September 22nd, 2009

I have found that, within the last few months the itchy sensation that my Psoriasis has caused in my scalp has been slowly migrating down my neck, mostly to the areas where my neck hair grows.  So, apparently, my particular case of Psoriasis has an affinity for skin that is covered with hair.

I have learned Psoriasis manifests itself in a variety of different forms, with a huge range of severity (from mild to unbearably severe).  It is also true (as my case demonstrates) that this skin condition changes as the years go on.  A steadily increasing area of my scalp has been affected as the years have passed to the point that now, as of a few months ago, it is beginning to spread out slowly from my scalp.

At this point I wonder how far it will spread.  I have read that Psoriasis will go into remission for years at a time — this is what I am hoping will happen sometime soon.
