    We have had great success with our product "Psorexederm Cream" for eczema and psoriasis in the genital area and scrotum area for men and the genital area for women. The positive aspects are it usually produces good results within 14 days, ...ANSWER
  2. i get a heat rash on my private areas every time i get my period. is it from the always pads I wear? it doesn't really itch just hurts when i wipe with toilet paper. what can i put on it to make it go away? i bleed for 7 days and then it lasts about 5 days after my period stops..i have used desitin..but are there other creams that work better??
    Firstly avoid all perfumed toilet paper, pads etc. The perfume aggravates the area. Secondly, Apply our 'Psorexederm cream' which will give relief amazingly fast. It is a thick cream which melts when applied to cover the area with a protective anti-itch film. It is anti-friction so the skin areas can recover quickly. ...ANSWER
  3. My dermatologist says I have scrotal dermatitis or seborrhea. I keep using cortisone creams which help slightly, but it always comes back. I have also become sensitive to wool slacks which is particularly distressing as I would like to resume wearing suits and dress slacks. Will your cream help? Also, how long would one have to use it. Finally, why is there nothing like this available in the USA? Is your cream safe ?
    We have had excellent results with scrotal dermatitis however the product requires the following application method. The 'Psorexederm Cream' is a thick white zinc based cream that can stain clothes so purchase some women's panty liners to messing up your clothing. It will not sting and will soothe any itch. ...ANSWER
  4. I received the 'Psorexederm Cream'. I am very worried that whether I got the wrong cream. When I ordered the cream, my breast skin (from nipple below, the skin was red and itchy, with breast swollen little bit due to pre-menstruation). I looked your site, it maybe related to fugus. But I found out today, you have another cream called 'Breast Rash Cream'. So what is the difference between the two? Which is one if the permanent cure for fungus underneath breast? I had been having fungus infection inside vagina for many years, I guess the 'Psorexederm Cream' will treat my breast fungus too?
    The 'Psorexederm Cream' will work on your breast and is also suitable for the external vaginal area. (It doesn't sting) Both Psorexederm and the Breast Rash cream contain the same amount of boric acid which has helped you previously. ...ANSWER
  5. I am a 60 yr old black female (African American) with three grown daughters who have over the past 10 years themselves developed eczema.

    I just developed some outbreaks over the past 1½ yrs primarily a few spots on my face for which I have used Topicort Cream. During the past 7 to 8 months, I have developed itchy, red rashes under my breasts (I am large breasted). The other more stressful and disappointing problem is that I also believe that I have eczema in my vaginal area. This problem develops usually when the breast problem develops because I persire and when I get moist the itching never fails.

    Please tell me what I can do. I have an allergy to Sulfa and have no allergies to food or any other things.

    As you will have observed with the problems in both the breast and genital area, hot weather makes it worse due to perspiration and moisture. The breast rash cream is also suitable for the genital area and will not sting or irritate. It is a water free base which is able, to absorb perspiration and moisture to a high degree ensuring your comfort. It also contains a small amount of boric acid as an anti-fungal agent. ...ANSWER
  6. I have had cracked skin in my perineal area for over a year. I tried cortisone cream, zinc oxide but nothing seem to make them go away. My dermatologist did a biopsy and said it was a form of dermatitis. She believes in natural products and had me try zinc oxide, petroleum jelly etc, which hasn't helped. I think I need something to build the skin in that area and heal the raw cracked skin.
    We have had great results with our 'Psorexederm Cream' for people who have been in great despair with psoriasis and dermatitis in the perineal area. Apply it thickly to the perineal area twice a day, it does not sting usually unless the area is very raw in which case some slight discomfort may be noticed when first applying the cream. ...ANSWER
  7. I haave psoriasis: In my ears; behind my ears; scalp; forehead; arm pits; Areaola; Under breasts; Spots on breasts (I breast feed); spots all over my trunk; smaller spots appearing on my arms and legs including knees and elbows Spots now appearing at the top of my Bottom crack and pubic region I have just started get get it on my nails i suspect. What do you suggest to use and where please?
    Our Psorexederm cream is safe for breast feeding mums anywhere except the areola and surrounding skin where the babies mouth contacts during feeding. However, if a little got into the babies mouth it would not be harmful. It should be avoided however due to the high zinc level of the cream. It is particularly effective in the genital region applied twice a day ...ANSWER
  8. i have a large patch of black skin in and around my genital area. it is rough and is very itchy which even spreads it further. please suggest me a medicine for it..... im 17 years old and im very worried i done want this to be a long term problem. please help me. is there a cure for it? and is it dangerous to my life too?
    Black skin is a bad sign which you need a doctor to diagnose. See your medical practitioner as soon as possible.
  9. I am currently 5 months pregnant, and have had a fungal infection of the vagina (not a yeast infection and it is exterior, not interior) and rectum. I have been using Ketoconazole, but to no avail. In addition to the vaginal and rectal fungus, I have also contracted athlete's foot. I am just an itching mess. Oh yeah, and it is so much worse at night so much so that I am up for hours sometimes. I don't know what to use that will actually work and that will be ok during pregnancy.
    Our Tinea Cream is excellent for the feet but not suitable for sensitive areas like the outer vagina and rectum. Try our Previt Vitamin E Cream (Safe for Pregnant woman) which is a thick water repellent protective non-sting formula applied thickly 2-3 times a day with panty liners in your underwear to minimize staining is ideal for itchy areas like the outer vagina and outer rectum. ...ANSWER
  10. When I sit for long periods of time (work at desk 6-8 hours, fly or drive long distances), I get inflamed in my vaginal area. I notice that I start to feel irritated and begin adjusting the crotch of my slacks, and then the next day I have discharge and discomfort. I'm about 30 pounds overweight, don't wear tight clothing, take acidophilus daily , drink lots of water, and have regular pap smears The pattern of these symptoms definitely relates to sitting for too long. Any suggestions?
    The problem is common and due the affected area being under pressure. The ideal solution is simply to apply our Psorexederm cream liberally to genital area with a panty pad with "wings to avoid the cream staining the underwear. If results are not immediate there may be some fungal infection present which can be eliminated with a single oral diflucan capsule however this is unlikely and mentioned just to cover all possibilities. ...ANSWER

Dear david

Hi MH,

We have had great success with our product "Psorexederm Cream" for eczema and psoriasis in the genital area and scrotum area for men and the genital area for women.

The positive aspects are it usually produces good results within 14 days,
The negative side is that is zinc based and messy to use.

However we have developed a method of application to maximise results and minimise mess. Get a pair of wide panty liners that women use from the supermarket just about anything with an adhesive strip and "wings" will do. This is to avoid mess on your clothing during the day. You apply it fairly thickly at night and wear an old pair of underpants to bed, put a panty liner in and place it inside your underwear where the underwear is likely to get cream on it..

When you shower in the morning use Cetaphil Wash or NS wash from you local Pharmacy (Chemist). When the area is dry, apply the cream sparingly then use a soft cloth like an old towel to wipe off the excess to just leave a shine on your skin. Put a panty liner in your underwear if you feel it is necessary.

The product works as it has no water in it yet is highly protective to damaged skin. It has coal tar to soothe itch and a small amount of anti-fungal boric acid to help heal.

I have had several women with psoriasis or eczema in the genital area and this works well, and is pain free and effective.

Thank you for you question which I don't think I have put the problem or the answer on the website yet so I will email it to my webdesigner to be included totally deidentified and in information form.

Hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
David Hosking.

for three months now, i get a heat rash on my private areas every time i get my period.
is it from the always pads I wear? it doesn't really itch just hurts when i wipe with toilet paper.
what can i put on it to make it go away? i bleed for 7 days and then it lasts about 5 days after my period stops..i have used desitin..but are there other creams that work better??

i have bactroban cream i got for a rash on my arm, can that be used in the private areas? i have never had this before, just the pst three months it started. and, i was on doxycycline for a month for cystic acne, and i stopped taking that cuz/ i got a yeast infection..but ever since i took that doxy, i have had this now during period time?? any answers would help. i haven't been to the doctor for it, but may have to.

Hi.

This is a common problem which I will put on the website deidentified as both men and women can suffer related problems in the genital area and since men don't ask about these things as often as women I thought this may bring the men up to speed too.

We often are asked this problem by a number of different people. People who have eczema & psoriasis in the genital area, athletes that suffer chafing in the genital area and women who have tried the usual thrush treatments with no success and are still left with very irritated and sometimes raw areas especially in the skin folds.

Hormone changes during the period and also for some people during menopause can suffer this problem. I assume you have already tried the usual thrush treatments like diflucan tablets and the various anti-fungal creams with little success.

Firstly avoid all perfumed toilet paper, pads etc. The perfume aggravates the area. Secondly, Apply our Psorexederm cream which will give relief amazingly fast. It is a thick cream which melts when applied to cover the area with a protective anti-itch film. It is anti-friction so the skin areas can recover quickly.

In your case I would apply it generously to well coat the skin. It is totally safe in the genital area. Then use a pad in the normal way. As it can stain clothing the pads with "wings" are best.

For men with crotch chafing apply it generously and get a pack of womens panty liners with wings. These are simply an absorbant pad with a self adhesive strip that you can stick inside the front of your underwear to prevent the cream getting on your clothes. This may all sound odd for men but it does work fast to clear chafing between the legs, especially in men with bigger figures. The pad cannot be seen when your trousers are on. It may feel a bit odd at first but it works very rapidly to solve the problem. I hope this helps,

Kind Regards,
David Hosking.

Hello David:
My dermatologist says I have scrotal dermatitis or seborrhea. I keep using cortisone creams which help slightly, but it always comes back. I have also become sensitive to wool slacks which is particularly distressing as I would like to resume wearing suits and dress slacks.

Will your cream help? Also, how long would one have to use it. Finally, why is there nothing like this available in the USA? Is your cream safe? I have tried internet product before with no success.
Thank you very much. I need help!

Hi M,
We have had excellent results with scrotal dermatitis however the product requires the following application method. The Psorexederm Cream is a thick white zinc based cream that can stain clothes so you will need to purchase some women's panty liners with wings to avoid the cream messing up your clothing. Apply it thickly before bed to the affected area. It will not sting and will soothe any itch. Then get a pair of underpants, bikini type are best, and peel the backing off the panty liner to reveal the adhesive back and stick it inside the front of the pants wear your genitals will touch the cloth when you put them on.

In the morning, remove the panty liner and discard it, have a shower to wash off the cream using a soap free cleanser such as cetaphil. It is not necessary to remove all trace of the cream which will leave a thin protective oily layer on the skin. You will feel the skin has absorbed some product but it should not stain during the day.

If the problem is severe and you are at home during the day, say, a week end, you can also use the cream during the day also. If the product works for you, you should see a great improvement within 14 days. However, as no product works in 100% of cases we offer a hassle free 100% refund. Simply let us know if it worked! If it did work we would love to know, and if it doesn't we will happily refund your money in full.

It is hard to know how long you may need to use it. Once the problem has cleared up you stop using it but still avoid soap and anything that could aggravate it. Perfumed talc, fragranced toilet paper and soap are common irritants. It may recur and you may have to retreat it. Men and women get this problem and I have had good feedback on the product working, but little information on it recurring.

Cortisone is fine for a short while but over the long term it does damage the skin. If you are currently using it be aware that suddenly stopping it may cause a "Cortisone Flare-Up" 3 days after you stop.

If using cortisone, keep using it during the day and use our Psorexederm Cream at night. After 1 week halve the dose of cortisone. E.G. using it twice a day with our product at night for 1 week, after 1 week drop it to once a day with our product then all should be progressing well and you can stop the cortisone and if still needed, continue with the Psorexederm Cream.

The product should cause immediate improvement, in the unlikely event of a reaction, cease using it and let me know. This is unlikely.

Hope you have good results when you try the Psorexederm Cream. I look forward to hearing the results.

I received the 'Psorexederm Cream'. I am very worried that whether I got the wrong cream. When I ordered the cream, my breast skin (from nipple below, the skin was red and itchy, with breast swollen little bit due to pre-menstruation). I looked your site, it maybe related to fugus.

But I found out today, you have another cream called 'Breast Rash Cream'. So what is the difference between the two? Which is one if the permanent cure for fungus underneath breast?

I had been having fungus infection inside vagina for many years, several months ago it was cured by 12 packs of Boric Acid. I guess the 'Psorexederm Cream' will treat my breast fungus too?

Also I just have been diagnosed having Eczema on my nose/chin area, I can use 'psorexederm cream' on my face as well, so I don't have to use Fluticasone cream prescribed by doctor.




The 'Psorexederm Cream' will work on your breast and is also suitable for the external vaginal area. (It doesn't sting) Both Psorexederm and the Breast Rash cream contain the same amount of boric acid which has helped you previously.

The breast rash cream is formulated without coal tar so has very little smell and very little color, all desirable attributes so as not to stain clothing,

However, the Psorexederm Cream can be applied to the area and the excess removed with a soft cloth to avoid staining clothing. Its a little messier but has a greater anti-itch effect due to the coal tar.

Try it for 2-3 weeks and it should do the job. If not, let me know. Safety wise the products are equally safe.

Kind Regards,
David

I just developed some outbreaks over the past 1½ yrs primarily a few spots on my face for which I have used Topicort Cream. During the past 7 to 8 months, I have developed itchy, red rashes under my breasts (I am large breasted). The problem here usually occurs if I perspire at night and become hot, then underneath my breasts begins to itch very badly. The other more stressful and disappointing problem is that I also believe that I have eczema in my vaginal area. This problem develops usually when the breast problem develops because I persire and when I get moist the itching never fails.

Please tell me what I can do. I have an allergy to Sulfa and have no allergies to food or any other things.



As you will have observed with the problems in both the breast and genital area, hot weather makes it worse due to perspiration and moisture. The breast rash cream is also suitable for the genital area and will not sting or irritate. It is a water free base which is able, to absorb perspiration and moisture to a high degree ensuring your comfort. It also contains a small amount of boric acid as an anti-fungal agent.

It is far superior to cream bases which contain water in their formulae.

Cortisone creams are probably one of the worst products for this problem, in my opinion, as they do not protect the skin against the causative moisture but suppress the symptoms only.

When applying our Breast Rash Cream to the genital area use enough so the whitish cream forms a thin layer over the affected area and use a panty liner to prevent the zinc soiling underwear. (if it gets on dark clothing it can be hard to remove) Have said all that it is actually much easier to actually do compared to explaining it in writing. Apply it to the skin folds under your breast in a similar manner and see if you can use soft cloth between the underwire and the ointment covered skin. If this is inconvenient, apply it thickly to the skin fold at night and wear an old loose tee-shirt to avoid getting the cream on the bed linen.

Relief of irritation should be almost immediate as our testimonials attribute.

The problem will clear up completely but the cause being moisture in skin fold areas will cause the problem to recur. You will have a good interval of relief between occurrences and the cream is safe to use long term as it is a moisture absorbing antifungal barrier.

I think you will be very pleased with the product and the rapidity of it's action. Kind Regards,

I have had cracked skin in my perineal area for over a year. I tried cortisone cream, zinc oxide but nothing seem to make them go away. My dermatologist did a biopsy and said it was a form of dermatitis. She believes in natural products and had me try zinc oxide, petroleum jelly etc, which hasn't helped. I think I need something to build the skin in that area and heal the raw cracked skin.

Do you think your Nappy Rash Cream will work? Could you design a cream for me that will work.




We have had great results with our Psorexederm Cream for people who have been in great despair with psoriasis and dermatitis in the perineal area. Apply it thickly to the perineal area twice a day, it does not sting usually unless the area is very raw in which case some slight discomfort may be noticed when first applying the cream.

Then use a panty liner with "wings" to protect your clothing. It has zinc oxide in it to soothe, vitamin A & D to heal, coal tar to relieve inflammation, pure lanolin to make the skin more supple, protect and promote healing & a small amount of boric acid as an antifungal.

Excellent feedback on use in the perineal and genital areas has always been the case. It can even soothe hemorrhoids !!!

Good morning.

I am wanting to order your psoriasis product. Which Products do you recommend for where please. I have both Seb and Psor on my scalp,

I haave psoriasis: In my ears; behind my ears; scalp; forehead; arm pits; Areaola; Under breasts; Spots on breasts (I breast feed); spots all over my trunk; smaller spots appearing on my arms and legs including knees and elbows Spots now appearing at the top of my Bottom crack and pubic region I have just started get get it on my nails i suspect. They have an initial pin size dot then a very pale look then the nail lifts

What do you suggest to use and where please?

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my email.

Cheers B

Hi B,

Our Psorexederm cream is safe for breast feeding mums anywhere except the areola and surrounding skin where the babies mouth contacts during feeding. However, if a little got into the babies mouth it would not be harmful. It should be avoided however due to the high zinc level of the cream.

It is particularly effective in the genital region applied twice a day, it helps protect and heal and is very effective against itch. (It doesn't sting and is highly protective) As it is zinc based, when applied thickly to the genital & anal areas use a panty liner with the"wings" to avoid staining the clothes.

For the body and behind the ears (not the genital/anal area) apply 2-3 times a day. If you feel the need it is quite safe to use more often. E.g. Apply extra at night is itching bothers you.

Massage it into the affected areas and then use an old soft cloth to blot off the surplus just leaving a sheen of cream so it won't stain your clothes. You should get almost immediate improvement in the genital/anal area and improvement within 14 days on the body.

For the scalp, our Psorexederm Scalp lotion is ideal. Simply just use as directed on our web site at : http://www.hoskingspharmacy.com/treat-scalp-rashes.htm

For the areola, I would recommend a product like Lansinoh or a similar ultra pure wool fat product. If you cant get lansinoh locally we do have ultra pure lanolin (wool fat) on our website. Apply to the areola before and after a feed as it designed for this purpose.

The flare up of your psoriasis is probably hormonal and also related to the stress of having a new baby. The good side of that is the problem will probably soon improve with treatment.

Also take a one a day multivitamin supplement. It probably will not help your psoriasis, but it is in my opinion, a good idea. Some dieticians disagree saying a good diet is adequate alone. However, In my practice I have seen the benefits of taking a multivitamin daily for anyone and I believe it is a good idea.

Hope this helps. I will deidentify this and add it to the website as I think it will be of great value to other people.

Kind Regards,
David Hosking.



First of all I want to mention that I love your products. I had a horrible breast rash a while back and nothing was working. I had relief using your Breast Rash Cream almost immediately!! Because of that success, I wanted to ask your help with my new issues. I am currently 5 months pregnant, and have had a fungal infection of the vagina (not a yeast infection and it is exterior, not interior) and rectum. I have been using Ketoconazole, but to no avail. In addition to the vaginal and rectal fungus, I have also contracted athlete's foot. I am just an itching mess. Oh yeah, and it is so much worse at night so much so that I am up for hours sometimes. I don't know what to use that will actually work and that will be ok during pregnancy. I have seen a dermatologist, and infectious disease specialist, my gp, and the ob/gyn. I hope there is something you can suggest.

Our Tinea Cream is excellent for the feet but not suitable for sensitive areas like the outer vagina and outer rectum. Try our Previt Vitamin E Cream (Safe for Pregnant woman) which is a thick water repellent protective non-sting formula applied thickly 2-3 times a day with panty liners in your underwear to minimize staining is ideal for itchy areas like the outer vagina and outer rectum.

Wash all underwear and socks in a hot wash always to kill any spores so as not to reinfect yourself. Take probiotic capsules like lactobacillus acidophillus to maintain a good balance of beneficial bacteria in your body. You will find that should be very successful. Our Tinea Cream for the feet can sometimes itch more the first application but after that the problem rapidly disappears. Kind regards, David Hosking. 26\6\08



Hi, I've been using your breast rash cream since year 2005, and as my testimonial says, it really works. Since you are the only place that I found a cure for my 4-year long problem (after visits to many doctor offices), I'm contacting you. I'm hoping you can help me with a new problem. When I sit for long periods of time (work at desk 6-8 hours, fly or drive long distances), I get inflamed in my vaginal area. I notice that I start to feel irritated and begin adjusting the crotch of my slacks, and then the next day I have discharge and discomfort.

I'm about 30 pounds overweight, don't wear tight clothing, take acidophilus daily , drink lots of water, and have regular pap smears

Any suggestions? The pattern of these symptoms definitely relates to sitting for too long.

The problem is common and due the affected area being under pressure. The ideal solution is simply to apply our Psorexederm cream liberally to the genital area with a panty pad with "wings to avoid the cream staining the underwear.

If results are not immediate there may be some fungal infection present which can be eliminated with a single oral diflucan capsule however this is unlikely and mentioned just to cover all possibilities.

The Psorexederm Cream will work in a few days and can be stopped when the problem clears. Depending on climate/temperature etc it may recur from time to time in which case retreat as soon as symptoms are noticed. It is non-irritant with an immediate soothing effect and no cortisone or nasty stuff so it is safe to use as required. Kind regards, David Hosking. 2\10\08
