I reserve any steroid cream for individual leasions with a bandaid to cover. broad application thins ALL the skin and even light scratching causes bleeding and then infection, its not for broad use of long term use. For red, sore infected ones I apply Benzoil peroxide to each lesion, lots of sores I just opt for bleach bath. I dont use over the counter stuff, list of chemicals to lengthy for my already sensitive skin.

Yeah definitely be careful with that stuff cuz my doctor told me to use it for a week then lay off of it and then go back well of course I didn't listen and my right arm skin is extremely thin.

That is an issue I am having. I will put a Band-Aid on but my skin will get so sensitive that you can see where the Band-Aid was. That's how irritated it gets. I don't know what to do anymore. I can't put creams or lotions because it clogs my pores. It's driving me crazy
