Hi, I'm afraid I may not be much help. as it turns out I do not have LS. I had a biopsy finally and it turned out to be eczema brought on by the use of clobetesol. im allergic it turns out to steroids. you may have a UTI or you may be allergic to the clobetesol . sorry I cant be more help. I would suggest contact your dermatologist and them them your symptoms. good luck!

@eileenb1022 I was diagnosed back in May 2019 by biopsy. Started with Clobetasol but that made itching worse. Finally found out that I'm allergic to methylprednisoline which is a steroid as I've had reactions to that in other preparations. I have done some investigation and saw that someone used evening Primrose oil, and Emuaid max. The oil i take is a capsule which i take once a day(otc) and the other is an ointment that I use for flares. I have been without a flare up in over a year now. Good luck in finding something that works for you as people are all different.

Thank you for your response. Just curious what did they treat you with for the eczema?
