Abstract
Irrespective of the cause, treatment of plica neuropathica remains cutting of tangled hairs at the outset, and avoiding the cause in future so as to stop recurrences. Successful management of plica in a psychologically disturbed widow with 2 mg. daily Pimozide - a drug for acute and chronic schizophrenias and manic excitement patients, is reported.
