] comparing two ways to treat scalp psoriasis

] Have you ever looked at your friend's scalp and wondered why they have those funny red dots and white scales? It turns out, about 80% of people with psoriasis have this issue on their scalp. Treating it can be tough, but scientists found two things that might help: a special kind of light called excimer light and a cream called topical methotrexate (MTX) 1% hydrogel. They picked 30 people and treated half of their scalp with the light and half with the cream for three months.After the treatment, both options improved the symptoms, like the red dots and scales. About 83% of people using the light saw a big change, and 60% with the cream did too. Plus, the people were happy with both treatments. Neither had serious side effects. It's interesting to note that these two treatments worked just as well as each other. This means doctors can choose the one that's best for each person, depending on their situation. Isn't that neat?
