Bolton UK (PRWEB UK) 8 April 2013

The results of the Labour Force Survey released this month, published by Health and Safety Executive (HSE)* show that occupational dermatitis still accounts for a high proportion of work-related disease cases. These statistics are replicated within Asons Solicitors, with a substantial volume of Industrial Disease claims being Dermatitis related.

Asons Executive, Thomas Fairclough, commented on the rise weve seen:

Over the last year dermatitis claims have accounted for a substantial proportion of our industrial disease cases. It seems despite being easily preventable, occupational dermatitis is still an ongoing issue.

New Psoriasis Control Shampoo Combines Salon Luxury with Fast Relief for Psoriasis, Dandruff and Dermatitis of the Scalp

Anaheim, CA (PRWEB) June 04, 2013

TriDerma, a maker of specialized skin care, announced the launch of its new Psoriasis Control Shampoo, a medical strength shampoo that helps provide fast relief for the itchy and scaly scalp that are symptoms of psoriasis, dandruff and dermatitis.

Psoriasis can affect any skin surface and is marked by a build-up of skin cells called scales. Patches of skin affected by psoriasis become itchy, dry, red, and sometimes painful. It is estimated that half of the 7.5 million Americans with psoriasis are affected by scalp psoriasis. It can appear as one or multiple patches on the scalp, affect the entire scalp, and spread beyond the scalp to the forehead, back of the neck, or behind the ears. It can be difficult to treat psoriasis of the scalp because of the difficulty applying topical psoriasis treatments to the affected area.

TriDerma Psoriasis Control Shampoo contains 3% salicylic acid. Salicylic Acid, approved by the FDA as a treatment for psoriasis, gently exfoliates flakes and scales, and helps relieve itching, redness and irritation due to psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.
