Hi all,
I am new in the forum.
I have been having psoriasis for more than a year and a half now in my private areas (penis and scrotum).
I am mainly treating myself with Trimovate cream which I think is a corticoid (and I think that medicine has the danger of thinning the skin) but is the one that help me the most of all treatments.
I am also sometimes using Protopic cream 0.1% or Advantan cream and when I manage to control it I maintain with Dexeryl.
Last week I had the psoriasis coming bad again and I spend a week using twice a day Trimovate cream until I got a bit better.
After using the Trimovate for a week I had sexual relations with my girlfriend. The penis was extremely red and too sensitive after the sexual relations. The next day the penis was still red and still sensitive with a tiny superficial wound in it. I fear that the skin got thinner due to the use of the cream.
How could I find out if the reason the skin in that area being so sensitive? how could I find out if is due to the psoriasis or to the skin becoming thinner there?
If part of the cause of this is the thinning of the skin: are they any solutions for this? or would I have a thin skin forever now and would have this problem now for good?.
Anyone with an experience similar to this?.
Any doctors/hospitals out there that are considered the best on this kind of psoriasis?.
I am only 40. Any hopes or ways to improve or recover from this situation?.
Any help or support would be greatly appreciated.
