My Psoriasis Transferred with My Transplanted Hair
I just underwent a transplant 2 weeks ago. Regarding your post on Psoriasis i would have to respectfully disagree. I get have really bad psoriasis in the back of my head (donor area) and it definitely transferred to the recipient area, even so much as to go a little bit on my upper forehead just below where the grafts were placed. On day 7 post op i took a normal shower and with my fingertips rubs all the scabs off. Should i be worried that I could have harmed my potential new grafts? Also please let me know how you would treat this?
If you transferred psoriasis, you would be the first patient I heard of that had experienced this. Rubbing scabs off always worries me, but it will not damage the grafts if it was not done roughly. Your psoriasis should be treated by your doctor, not me over the internet.
