Suggest Ways To Manage Rashes When Diagnosed With Porokeratosis
I have Porokeratosis. I suppose I caught it from my mother, who also has it. We were both sun worshippers. She just has it on her legs. I have it on my legs and arms. Someone online said she tried diaper rash cream and it helped to elevate the angry looking areas. I ve tried everything; prescription and OTC. Any new treatments out there??

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Some of the possible treatment of prokeratosis are:
5-fluorouracil cream.
Calcipotriol cream which are prescription cream.
You can consult the dermatologist about further treatment such as cryotherapy and dermabrasion.
Hope my answer was helpful.
