I am 20 year old mail and I have psoriasis. I visited a doctor yesterday. She gave me Mometasone furoate (ELOCON) ointment and Hydramost lotion. I have to use ointment alternately by skipping one day one time at night and I have to use lotion everyday two times. My question is what should I apply first on my body ointment or lotion because I have to use both at night?
