  With all the cold weather we have been experiencing recently and many of us being sensible and wearing hats, for this week’s check in with Glasgow based Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick it is all about the sort of scalp conditions that Elizabeth tends to see people coming into the pharmacy with.  RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey began by asking Elizabeth whether dandruff is one of the more common conditions and whether you can get psoriasis of the scalp too. Then to issues around hair loss and anything that can be rub onto the scalp to help hair growth.  There is a lot of information and advice around hair loss on the following pages of the NHS website - https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/hair-loss/ To get in touch with Elizabeth you can email [email protected] or for more information visit - https://elizabethroddick.com Image:  Picture showing Elizabeth standing in her pharmacy, dressed in her white pharmacist coat and a colourful bandana around her neck, she's smiling.
