For those that have Psoriasis (sp).

Does cortizone cream work for you to make the dry spots and the redness go
away.

I am still wondering if the diagnosis of psoriasis is right? The dry areas
and redness and splotches came down on my forhead and were headed toward the
eyes again. So I was itching like made and finally decided to put some
cortizone cream on the forehead and eye brow areas before it did go to my
eye lids. Miracle it healed it up but now I am spotting some on my eyebrows
again.

I keep wondering if this isn't some kind of fungal stuff I get on my head
and now forehead area, kind of like a yeast thing, since I seem to have
yeast problems all over in other areas.

Yes, cortisone cream will heal up psoriasis patches, but it takes
several applications. For me it usually takes 2 applications daily
for about a week to clear a patch though it feels much better long
before it is clear. Then of course here is a very real rebound factor
once you stop using it.

Here's a good link about skin rashes http://www.medicinenet.com/rash/article.htm#types
You might read through it and look at the pictures to see which ou
think most closely resembles your rash.

thanks Nann and Gareeth. I didn't think it worked for Psoriasis like that.
Good to know. It worked well for mine but it is coming back on the eyebrows
again so will put a bit more on them again. I just have to be very careful
because my eyes are itching so bad and I don't want to accidently get the
cream in my eyes from rubbing in that area too much.

I haven't looked at the url yet will try to tomorrow. Had a busy day of
moving stuff out in the garage to get ready to move over to sons and SD's
next weekend. I am dying here. Jim is hurting too like made.

Glad you are still enjoying the Florida warmth. Try to keep it with you when
you return home. Have safe travels home too.

Better to work on it from the inside out.

Especially with something that's cheap as well as effective.
Kinda nice if it also helps with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus,
Crohn's, and fibromyalgia. And cancer.

I love this new setup for being online. I can finally see these things
without waiting hours. Thanks for the url on this one Nann, I am keeping it
for reference.
