Genital Treatment

Billy: I suffer from a mix of psoriasis and fungal infection in my groin. I found that Trimovate was the most effective. After a shower, I first dry my groin with kitchen roll rather than a towel- this can reduce the chances of spreading any fungal element. An aquaintance of mine uses a hair-dryer for this. I used trimovatre and ensure it is well rubbed in and absorbed. Then I apply a medicated anti-fungal powder. Once the outbreak has cleared up I stop using trimovate or any creams, and concentrate on drying my groin thoroughly and apply an anti-fungal powder eg daktarin. I find I get far better outcomes by keeping my groin as dry as possible rather than keeping a warm-moist area for fungal infection to kck-off. I have now gone from an outbreak every 4-5 weeks for a couple of years, to no outbreak for 12 months.

Perrymuir: no, warts are caused by well understood viruses, sometimes sexually transmitted. Psoriasis is not.

Hi OhNo_NotAgain? Does this clear up the red patches and stop the itchiness? Thanks Billy

Billy: yes, it has done for me.

I use Silkis for the groin area, problem is its not always available, there seems to be supply issues

Makes me angry how dismissive they are about the effect on quality of life. Try not having sex because its too painful. I have used steroid cream I know you are not supposed too but eh. I have also used silkis in the past. In my experience nothing keeps it away for long.
