I am in the middle of a weird flare where my scalp and armpits are super itchy and on fire. No visible psoriasis sores, although I can see the outline of a pink rash forming under my armpits (inverse maybe?). I am trying so hard not to scratch. I bought some medicated shampoo for my scalp but what does one do for itchy armpits? Will shaving make it worse? Please help. The itching is driving me crazy.

Please note: I know this is a psoriasis thing. I haven’t changed any toiletries or soap, and this is timed with losing Bimzelx and waiting for Skyrizi to get sent. I also had a period of time last week where I couldn’t shower (only sponge bath) bc of a medical device trial which probably aggravated my skin. Ugh.
