I'm dealing with psoriasis and my doctor recommended Kenz Sal lotion, but it's really thick. Any tips on how to properly apply it to my scalp?

To apply thick Kenz Sal Lotion to your scalp:

  1. Warm the lotion by placing the bottle in warm water.
  2. Apply a small amount to affected areas using a cotton swab or scalp applicator.
  3. Gently massage into scalp.
  4. Leave on for 30 minutes to an hour before washing hair.

You can also mix a small amount of lotion with coconut or olive oil to thin it out.

I've been dealing with a really red and irritated rash along my mustache line, and it's super dry and itchy. Recently, I also noticed a lump on the right side of my jaw, and I can't figure out why it's there. Plus, my acne seems to be getting worse. I've been using moisturizer and washing my face with 10% benzoyl peroxide, but I've avoided using it in the rashy area for months. I first noticed the dryness and flakiness around the start of the year. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

I noticed a big pus-filled bump on my dad's back and when I pressed it, most of the pus came out. I've cleaned it with Savlon and dressed it with Betadine. I started giving him Augmentin 650 yesterday. Could you advise me on what else I should do or if there's something more I should be concerned about?
