I have had Psoriasis for about as long as I can remember. I have been to several doctors and I get relief through ointments but it never goes away. I was wondering if anyone has had any success with any type of home cures?

My finger has this dry area on its base. It's really dry and it has cracks around it. It's rougher than the rest of the fingers and when you peel it, it secretes some sort of fluid. It has these holes under the skin, too where the fluid seems to come from and it has a small wound.

When I leave it alone, it has a yellowish streak across the finger after the peeled skin regrows. Applying lotion doesn't do anything.

I was bitten by a spider over two months ago and have been seen by two different doctors and treated with antibiotics. It has turned into an ulcer wound and seems to be getting worse. Has anyone ever experienced this before? I was bitten just above my left ankle. It is swelling and I am in constant pain. Does anyone have any home remedies to treat this or to draw the venom out?

My prepubescent daughter has had genital irritation for 6 months. She has undergone a myriad of treatments from several doctors without resolution. Some days she can barely stand to sit or wear underwear. There are no visible signs except red vaginal mucosa (hymen is intact), and the redness continues in a straight line up the crack of her hiney at times. No visible vaginal discharge or odor. The only things that help are baths or showers twice daily with no soap and topical steroids which I use sparingly. She has been treated with mebendazole (pinworm) twice with no effect, so that was ruled out. Two cultures showed normal bacteria inhabitance. We applied prescription antifungal creams (Protonix, Vusion, nystatin) to no avail. She has had two doses of oral antifungal (fluconazole) with no difference. We use All Free/Clear detergent, cotton white underwear, and white toilet tissue. She is fully potty trained. What differential diagnosis am I missing? Thank you in advance!

My dermatologist diagnosed it a few months ago and recommended a bar soap called ZNP. I found that irritated my sensitive skin. I've tried a couple of others that aren't too bad but would like to know if someone has had better luck than I've had so far.

the red bumps on my back could not be pinpointed by the Dr so he gave me a steroid shot and an antibiotic. why wouldnt a Dr be able to diagnose the bumpy rash on my back and on my sides?

I've had a burning and itching on my skin above my genetalia for several months, no rash. Just burning and itching.

My doctor diagnosed it as Candidiasis (without scraping or doing any add'l lab work) and prescribed a couple of different creams and they seemed to help, but they didn't resolve the issue.

I recently started on a tablet form of Nirozal (I'm on my 8th day). One a day, 200mg per day and the issue doesn''t seem to be getting better. I also apply a medicated baby powder on the area 3 times a day to absorb some of the moisture.

Has anyone been in this same boat? I'm getting frustrated at the situation and don't know what else to do.

I use the same detergent and the same soap to take a bathe. I take Benadryl to calm it down. I don't know what to do.
