I have been back from Iraq for about 7months, and when I first got back I broke out in what look like ring worm and the doctor gave me ointment for it, but did not help then went to VA and they told me it was psorios not ring worm they did not take a sample of it, and the Floucinonide USP seemed to work for a month or two but it's back and the cream is not working.
The sores start out as red circle then it's kind of raised and dry skin in the middle itches sometimes and when shower they are more irated and show up more defined. I don't think it's scriosis because I have always had a little on top of the head and medacated shampoo takes care of it and no problem, I have never broke out like this please advise.

Check out the website for psoriasis and see if they have pics on it and if it looks like what you have. The site also has other information that may help you.
Thank you for serving out country!

I would seek another medical opinion. If the VA denies you from seeing more advice, then I would write to your congressmen and tell them about your condition. They should help you as much as possible.
