Scalp psoriasis is seen as scaly silvery well-defined skin patches on the scalp, usually along the hair line. There may be itch, burning or discomfort. Scalp psoriasis can occur alone or in combination with psoriasis on the body. It can resemble dandruff but differs in that it extends beyond the scalp and appears on the forehead, the back of the neck or behind the ears
