Pityriasis amiantacea is a rare scalp condition characterized by thick, adherent scales and significant hair loss, often linked to underlying issues like psoriasis. Globally, its prevalence is low, and conventional treatments offer limited relief. This paper discusses a case of a 45-year-old female who developed severe scalp scabs and hair loss after experiencing financial stress, leading to the spread of psoriasis across her scalp and face, ultimately requiring her to shave her head. The case highlights the holistic homeopathic approach, focusing on individualized treatment that addresses both physical and emotional aspects to promote healing.
