I'm dealing with psoriasis and my doctor recommended Kenz Sal lotion, but it's really thick. Any tips on how to properly apply it to my scalp?

To apply thick Kenz Sal Lotion to your scalp:

Warm the lotion by placing the bottle in warm water.

Apply a small amount to affected areas using a cotton swab or scalp applicator.

Gently massage into scalp.

Leave on for 30 minutes to an hour before washing hair.

You can also mix a small amount of lotion with coconut or olive oil to thin it out.
