Has anyone tried 3% hydrogen peroxide on stubborn lesions which do not heal?

Clobetasol is very strong and I use it on my arms not my ears. I make my own lotion with oatmeal water, fresh aloe and a petroleum ointment base. I whip it up in the food processor and store it in the fridge. It’s cool and soothing. If my ears itch I mix 1-2 drops of tea tree oil with my lotion in my palm. Hope you find what works for you.

My temporary fix is Carmex for the ones on my scalp! Someone in the group asked if CBD works, & I do have my Medical MJ License w/my state, & I have the vapor rub that I use for my bone-on-bone knee, leg w/vein disease, & the good ol Arthur!! Well, got so flared as was insane in the membrane that I dabbed some on my scalp lesions, & at first a lil more burn & then calmed them down for almost a day, & then that night they flared again!! I am to the point of desperation & to the point of no return after dealing with this for almost 15 years, and do have some Alopecia from the intense itching and scratching of this, whoa is us! Was a Guinea pig too long w/8 Dermas & 1 Allergist!!

If it is a PN lesion or sore, Clobetasol is good on it, it just takes a dab. If an open lesion, then I would use Mupirocin, which only takes a very tiny bit on it, and it only needs 15-20 minutes of nothing rubbing there for it to start helping. Yes, trial and error for me.
