I had a previous pustular psoriasis episode about 2 years ago in my genital region and buttocks, and now have small red bumps with indented center in the same area. It doesnt look like the same thing as 2 years ago. Could this be another form of psoriasis?
Hi, The lesions in groin areas and buttocks you described may be most probably folliculitis. Folliculitis is an infection of hair follicles. There may be mild to severe pain. Mild itching may be there. It may be due to friction of the areas. It is not pustular psoriasis. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. You may take antibiotic like definite, antiinflammatory like nimesulide and antihistamines like levocetirizine. Antibiotic like juridic acid cream may be applied on the lesions. Detail liquid may be used to cleanse the area. You might feel better after few weeks' treatment. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.
