Question : I think I have psoriasis on and around my left shoulder. I have primary lymph edema. I had a bad bronchitis attack and ear infection in April . I went to my PCP on Wednesday and she said I had ringworm on my lower right leg. She put me on Clotrimazole and Betamethasone Dipropionate cream. I tried it on my shoulder too and it seems to be helping. When I had bronchitis she put me on oral prednisone. What do you think?
