    Yes I have had anxiety on and off for years too. I also suffer from psoriasis on my elbows and have had it on my scalp and eyebrows a couple of times. Am not saying you've got this, but it could be a possibility. A shampoo from a chemist for a couple of weeks has soon cleared it up. It could be dermatitis which would also be helped by the shampoo. Maybe worth a try?

    Hi redmarigolds. Go  along to your doctor...it could be psoriasis, dermatitis. If you don't want to go to the doctors initially speak to your pharmacist and I am sure he'll be able to recommend something he may also suggest you visit your GP as what you are suffering from may be the culmination of years of anxiety. Take care.
