A few drops of extra virgin olive oil.

The oil doesn’t cure the psoriasis (obviously!) but does help to soften the build up and definitely relieves the itchiness. Try one ear at a time at night and place a towel on the pillow. Unfortunately blocked ears don’t seem to be covered by NHS anymore, which is appalling!

Yes

Have you tried using a SMALL amount of trimovate ointment/cream occasionally? Another suggestion is try one small drop of dilute shampoo, like Alphosyl or T-gel.
