Ok. seriously i know not everything is for everyone. but i have tried topical to ointment to shampoos to the shots in the thighs to these crazy pills all expect the ones that prevent me from having kids. i feel like i have tried everything. then i am just online bored looking for anything since my diet change didn't help. I came across this lady on youtube saying how doo gro growth oil works. so here i am researching and it got alot of positive results and i am thinking sure they probably just have dry skin or something. but what else am i to do at this point its over taken my entire face and scalp. i bought it today and now a few hours later after applying it. its going away right before my eyes. and i know what you must be thinking this is some scam no way. i have very thick all over and i just rubbed it on and put it right in my hair. and awesome. it was going away. now i think the secret it to keep it moist till you get the big flakes away and use only as needed there after. but my treatment i have is washing my hair with a psoriasis shampoo like a tar or that sal... acid. and then wait till almost dry or dry to put oil on and i have good faith i get this relieving feelings. and if this doesnt work like i hoped atleast it eases itching and does clear up most of it. but i will be on here in a few days to let everyone know my results. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.

Hi Chinoismystar,
So glad you have found something that works for you. Do you have a list of ingredients in the oil product you have been using? Many people have good success using a quality olive oil to remove dry flaking skin. I am not familiar with the product you have mentioned. Good luck with it all!

I have had it for 3 years now. I have used the prednisone tapes, prescription ointments, pills, lotions, coal tar (which ruined my shoes and stinks too)even changed my soap so many times i lost count. Nothing worked. I finally just bought a container of Bag Balm. I put it on my feet at night and put on footies. In the morning, most of the scales are gone and there's not itching. I wash my feet again and put on a small amount for the day and it has kept the scales and itching down to a minimum for almost 3 months. now. The cost is $8.00 for 10 ounces and will last almost a year. I also use it on my hands at night and in the morning for a moisturizer and it helps keep the blisters down on my hands. It's worth a try and the cost is so much less comparied to everything else that's out there.

good work Maxine. What is this stuff, not aware of it! Will it also work on scalp?

Originally it was used on dairy cows for chapped utters The 1st time I heard of it being used on humans, I thought "no way! But it really works. A lot of farmers/ranchers use it on their skin to prevent it from becoming rough from being out in the sun. It's ingredients is Hygroxy Quinolin Sulfate and it is petroleum based. I get it at my local pharmacy in the lotion department. It's in a green tin can and is called "Bag Balm". If you can't get it, the address on the can is "Dairy Association o., Inc. Lyndonville, VT 05851.
I don't see why you can't put it on your scalp at night and sleep with a shower cap and then wash your hair in the morning. I put it on my feet and wear the footies and then wash my feet in the am. If I wear socks or hose in the day, I will put more on to help during the day, but I'm not much into wearing anything on my feet during the day if I can help it.
I've had a new breakout recently due to excessive stress and it's keeping it under control way better than all the medications/tapes that I was given in the beginning. I also use the Psoriasin in between during the day because it's not as greasy, but i have found it doesn't work as well as the bag balm. Hopefully it will keep on working. I have also found that after I use a treatment for so long, it doesn't work any more and that's real frustrating. I don't know about you, but i can't afford to go to the dermatolologist and spend $400.00 every couple of months for new treatment methods.
Hope this helps you out. If you have any different suggestions, please, I'm open to anything. Have a great day. maxine :
