I ordered this product called skin zinc that my friends and coworkers heard on the radio. I just picked it up today and I just put some on my skin, stings a tiny bit hope it works.

Chi wrote:Yes I also read somewhere AFTER I bought the product and applied it that it's probably a clone from skin-cap, blue cap which was banned several times that contained steriods but they kept denying it.
Argh, dunno what to do, I don't have any form of medication at the moment and my psoriasis is breaking out so I'll just use this for now.
I live in Southern Ontario, Canada. It's cold now like 0 to -5 degree Celcius maybe that's why my skin's a bit bad.
If you have any form of treatment that seems good that's not too expensive I'm willing to try it too.

Hi, I live in Southern Ontario too.
It's a small world!
I just went to my derm about a week ago.
He did a biopsy because have something on my face and I was concerned.
I have been diagnosed with psoriasis on my extremities.
Finally.
I am lucky because he gave me some samples.
He had already given me a prescription for the coal tar.
Depending on the area I use different things.
One for my elbows, one for my feet (right foot) in combination with the coal tar, and a different one for my face.
Have you seen a derm?
It is the best thing I ever did, my family doctor had to refer me.
I get my stitches out tomorrow by my family doctor.
Should know in about a month the results of the biopsy.
Right now I am using alcohol and vaseline on my face and the a prescription I already had meant for this area.
Glad I found this place.
It is awesome.
Hope you get some help dealing with your psoriasis.

Hello NightAngel. What is the alcohol for? Or are you waiting on the biopsy before you know what you have? I would have thought alcohol would only be suitable as a surface disinfectant. Do they think you have an infection or skin fungas of some kind? Just curious as if they suspected a fungas, a skin scrape would have been adequate rather than a full biopsy. Just my idol curiosity
