View allI've been getting these red rashes on my inner thighs and around the vaginal area, and they're really itchy. It seems like it's spreading to other parts of my body. Could you recommend any medicines or creams that could help with this and let me know how long I should use them for?

I was prescribed tacroz 0.1 tacrolimus for my psoriasis, but it's really pricey at 671rs for just 20g. I came across a couple of cheaper alternatives online, crolimate ointment and tacoseal 0.1. Can I use one of these, or is there another low-cost option you can suggest? I have psoriasis over most of my skin, and the expensive medicine is hard to keep up with. Any advice?
Both Crolimate and Tacoseal could be suitable alternatives to Tacroz since they contain the same active ingredient. However, its important to check with your doctor before switching to make sure these alternatives are effective and safe for your condition. In the meantime, other treatments like topical steroids, coal tar, or calcipotriene might also be good options if you're looking for more affordable choices. Your doctor will help guide you on the best path forward based on the severity and extent of your psoriasis.

I've got these burns from hot oil splashing on me in the kitchen a couple of days ago. The blisters have started to open up, and I'm not sure what to do about them. A friend gave me some clobetasol propionate cream 0.05%. Will that actually help with my burns? Most of them are small on my right arm and chest, but there are a few as big as 12 inches. Im kind of unsure about using this cream on the burns. Could you advise?
Yes you can use it,rather than that u can also use megaheal or silkal gel for good results
