I'm a 35-year-old guy dealing with psoriasis and my doctor prescribed Clovate cream. But I'm wondering if there's another cream I could try. Also, I'm from a low-income background, so something affordable would be great. Any suggestions?

Question

I'm dealing with acne-like stuff and I'm freaking out a bitcould this be an HIV rash? It's not itchy all the time, but every now and then it really is. What should I do?

I'm using Erytop lotion twice a day, once in the morning and then again before I go to bed. Is it okay to apply sunscreen over Erytop in the morning? And at night, can I put on a moisturizer after using the Erytop lotion? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

Question

I'm really worried about my wife's finger. A few months back, she got this tiny hole on the tip, and it hurt to touch, with a small circular thing forming there. The doctor told us to use a corn cap for a week, and that took away the pain and some side skin, but that circle's still hanging around with a tiny dot, just like it was several months ago. We don't see anything stuck in there, so were confused about whether to try the corn cap again or should we consider getting it removed surgically. Could you give some advice on what might be best to do?
