Circular cuts appearing in new places
Hello,
My daughter has had psoriasis for several years and none of the steroid creams have helped but the Aveeno cream controls and soothes it. Recently she received a circular cut on her hand which hurt when she touched it but has now scabbed over then one appeared on her nose. they bleed at first then scab. She has them appearing in random places such as her legs and arms but isn't spreading off each other they are appearing in places she didn't have them before. It is very distressing she is now a young adult and so it really affects her self esteem.

Greetings. It would be easier to help after seeing photos of the lesions. Could be a re currence / exacerbation of psoriasis . If lesions are wide spread she may require oral medication for control. It's safe to continue aveeno as moisturiser. See a qualified dermatologist near you at the earliest for adequate diagnosis and treatment. Warm regards Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Bengaluru
