My now 6 year old has had PR for a year now. It seems to be getting better then comes back with a vengeance. Catrinanitay advice? We’ve used all sorts of creams, lotions, steroids, oils etc. Thanks!

Nevillee Noone: He hasn’t seen a derm yet, we can’t find one close to where we live that will see kids. We have seen an allergist and 2 different peds and they have all said pityriasis but when it hasn’t gone away they said it has to be eczema even though it’s nothing like eczema.

Stefan Pinkienes: Certainly looks like PR
