Psoriasis like patches on random places on legs. 1 area appeared approx 5 months ago. Treated with bactroban ointment at first but no improvement, then more (smaller) patches just like initial one appeared. Treated with fungal cream & capsules prescribed by Dr. For 4 weeks, still no improvement. It has a dry, scaly, flaky appearance. If flakes/scabs falls off its bright red and moist underneath almost like open wound. There is no visible pus/green/yellow formation. Initial patch is almost 3 cm in diameter at present.
