LizLast week I noticed that I was getting dermatitis yet again on my elbows, I thought nothing of it, until I got a really bad rash on my knee again. I got this back in February, and just thought it was just a part of my dermatitis. Yesterday I went to the doctor and he told me I have early stages of psoriasis. It was news that I really didn’t want to hear, I would’ve rather him told me that I had ringworm. In fact, the shapes of the rash looked exactly like people who’ve had ringworm. I’ve been using the cream that he gave me and it’s starting to clear up nicely.
I was just wondering if this is something that is related to CAH? I’ve heard mothers talk on here about their kids having problems with their skin. Does anyone know if there is any relationship to this? No one else in my family has a problem with dermatitis, and the only relative in my family that had psoriasis, was my great grandpa on my mothers side. He is no longer with us and I have no other relatives who have any problems with this. I guess I figured maybe there is a relationship to the medication or something, but my mother also takes prednisone and has had no skin problems, other than bruising.
Any information would be great, this is pretty hard news on me. I would rather have dermatitis, than this.. Thank you all in advance to your information..
