Re: Fwd: [QUAD-L] scalp itch
I'm curious: do you think we're more susceptible to scalp itch because of our sci/quadriplegia for some reason? Or are we just having typical ailments that go along with aging? After all, Selsun Blue has been around a while--they must be making money. I can't think of many reasons our quadriplegia would contribute to scalp itch, except:1. we wear hats more?2. we lay in bed more and move less?3. we shower or wash our hair less?

Re: Fwd: [QUAD-L] scalp itch
I know I've always had dry skin. My legs and arms are always dry. I also sit in the sun a lot and burn my scalp. I also think lots of us do not shower, but get washed off. Getting soap washed off or body with a wet towel can never get all the soap off. Unless you used new towel with each wipe. Other wise your getting soap wiped off with a soapy towel. I assume it gets smeared a lot. Greg I'm curious: do you think we're more susceptible to scalp itch because of our sci/quadriplegia for some reason?

Re: Fwd: [QUAD-L] scalp itch
I bought a bottle of the selsun-blue shampoo. I run it around really good then take one of those white bristle brushes for nails and scrub my entire scalp with the shampoo still on then rinse it off. After that I apply regular shampoo and lather that then rinse. Im getting better.
