<bot>: Hi, To keep psoriasis under remission, you may try these1) scalp-use a tar based shampoo. Also apply a steroid salicylic acid lotion daily over scalp lesions2) elbow and knee-use mild soap to bathe(dove, Venusian, detail etc.). Moisturize skin by applying rotary or moisture cream. Apply a steroid salicylic acid based ointment over the lesions. It is always better to use prescription Chat Doctor. Hope that answers your query. Take care.
