Possible Kidney Failure
On top of that, he has very bad nummular eczema which we were treating with
topical
steroids
but we stopped those because of his kidney numbers. Now the eczema is worse than ever and we're just using over-the-counter lotions.

Phimosis
I’m currently researching
topical
steroids
and trying stretching exercises to help. Does anyone have any experiences/advice with these and let me know how effective they are? Many thanks!

Another auto immune condition: Lichen sclerosus
Lichen sclerosus is an unpleasant condition, mostly post-menopausal women, no known cure, just
topical
steroids
which 'may help with symptoms'. My GP gave me no advice and little sympathy, other than the steroid cream and to come back in 3 months. And watch for any cancerous changes.

Should I keep pushing to be tested? Or are the doctors right?
Hi there, I am really struggling. I have always felt like something was not right about my menstrual cycle. I’m now 22, and have been bleeding consistently and sometimes heavily since December 2023. This is the worst it has ever been, and I finally decided to seek treatment for something I have ignored

After my hip operation: PMR quiet (thank goodness) while everything else goes mad
caftan’s recent post about their upcoming hip operation prompted me to write this. I read the post, and the responses, to see if there was anything I could add, but there wasn’t. I’m 73, and my op in early Feb went really well; I’m now almost as active as I expect to be. My pred dosage has been managed

Psoriasis inside ear canal.
Does anyone else suffer from this. It's driving me mad! What has helped if anything? I have tried steroid cream.

Is it discoid lupus?
Hi fellow lupus warriors I posted a few weeks ago about an ulcer on my leg that wouldn't heal. After oral antibiotics that had no effect, the Dr found a stronger antibiotic cream that cleared up the infection. Hooray! But in the meantime I keep getting more bumps. I thought it was a coincidence,

Skin problems at low dose
I was so happy to finally get down to 5mg after 4+ years PMR and GCA...though attempts to get below this are so far not working but I am being patient. However 6 weeks ago I woke up to an itchy rash on my back and still have it. Diagnosed via photos and text with gp (4 week wait for f2f appt) as eczema

How is your skin?
I recall folks posting about skin issues and AMN a few years back, or did they? Never mind try this for size. Been going on for months and months now, When I'd get my head down on the pillow at night, within minutes it was like my head was crawling, the itching would soon start, heating up. Couldn't

‼ The lesion featured in this post may look like eczema or benign skin lesion, but it is in fact a melanoma! In rarer cases, all types of melanoma can lack pigmentation – these are known as amelanotic melanoma. Jane’s story below highlights just how important it is to get any abnormalities checked out

To circumcise or not to circumcise
Hi I'm 45, fit, not smoking, very little alcohol, regular exercise. Few years ago I was diagnosed with lichen sclerosis by a leading UK expert in genital dermatology prof Bunker. I didn't have any severe symptoms just some small red spots but no pain etc. at least not visible to me but he was confident

It felt like Levothyroxine was poisoning me :(
It felt like Levothyroxine was poisoning me :( Hi all, Im new here and this is my first post. On the 20th Dec 23 I came off of my dose of 150 Levothyroxine completely (cold turkey). It genuinely felt as if I was being slowly poisoned. I was constantly shattered, I couldn't think straight, i was so,

Itchy skin
Hi I have suffered with poly myalgia for about four years. Having been prescribed predisalone 20mg daily the pains went away and I am on a very very slow reduction, now only 1.5 mg daily. Six months ago I started with patches of itchy skin, sides of hands, hairline and round my eyes. GP thought it

GVHD and skin dryness.
Unfortunately I have chronic graft versus host desiese of the skin and have controlled it with a steroid cream since my ASCT a year and a half ago. My only issue currently is that I find it hard to look after the skin on my hands and feet that are dry and chapped. I have used quite a few emoluments

Eczema
Hello! My 18-week old daughter was diagnosed with baby eczema last month. Her dad has eczema too. We have been on and off the steroid cream since :( Any tips on how to manage it and what has worked best for your little ones? I am off dairy, eggs and soy, also gluten-intolerant so no wheat and oats either
