None of the above, it's my lizard like skin.

@AntisocialTroll wow. Is it a treatable condition? Maybe some olive oil?
AntisocialTroll · 56-60, F
@McGeeisme Psoriasis, it's treatable but the treatments that work can be pretty dangerous so I skip that stuff.
I've arthritis in my hands and tendonitis in the wrists so slathering myself in any kind of oil or cream multiple times a day is too painful.

@AntisocialTroll I can sympathize. I have an autoimmune disorder that causes symptomatic illnesses and one is psoriasis. Sometimes it is awful and sometimes I don't have it for months. The stuff my doc gave me is to be used one drop at a time. And only when necessary. Scares me. Had the bottle so long all of the printing faded completely and I don't know what it is anymore

@McGeeisme Mine is there all the time, it's severity ebbs and flows, currently it's flowing like a flooded bleeding river...
Be curious to know what you have in the bottle if you can ever work it out.

@AntisocialTroll well, I can tell you it is clear as water but somewhat viscous, and it smells sort of like elmers glue but kind of astringent to. I get the psoriasis on my eyelids sometimes and the stuff makes my eyes sting a little just rubbing a single drop on my eyelid.
AntisocialTroll · 56-60, F
@McGeeisme Not a clue what that might be. Only thing I can think of that would fit that is a glycerin and witch hazel mix but you wouldn't be told to only use a drop at a time so it can't be.

@AntisocialTroll some sort of corticosteroid
AntisocialTroll · 56-60, F
@McGeeisme Aha! Well done you. My skin is too thin for steroids as they used way too much on me as a kid.
McGeeisme · 61-69, M
@AntisocialTroll whoa. Yeah, my doc, he is 83 now and still practicing medicine, told me to use it very sparingly. So I almost never use it. I do a tea tree oil, olive and coconut oil mix for it usually. It helps a lot most of the time. But I have had some flare ups this year that were bad and all I could do was either use that other stuff or tough it out.
