Severe Itching

Asked for Male, 26 years

I have been having scaly patches on body especially on lower back, thighs, gluteal region and legs, severe itching since 10 months. A dermatologist diagnosed it as psoriasis (but it seems to be something else) and gave a lot of medicines and topical ointments, soaps mainly containing salisyclic acid and coal tar products but all in vain. Patches are increasing day by day and no pus is found instead they bleed on scratching. I suffered from dengue 11 months ago, which was misleadingly diagnosed.

Dear Patient,

I would request you to be a little patient. If you feel unsatisfied with the diagnosis you may have to meet one or more other specialists. Skin diseases can be tough to diagnose and often misdiagnosis and mistreatment can further flare up the disease. We cannot change your treatment plan without examining the situation in the clinic and perhaps performing some tests. Please seek help as soon as possible.

For further help, we advise booking an appointment with the best dermatologists in Lahore and seek a piece of in-person advice at https://oladoc.com/pakistan/lahore/dermatologist
