Any advice for a severely infected LyP lesion? I have been on methotrexate for 9 years now & it has stopped working completely. I have tried clobetasol cream, sunshine, less stress. Also, eliminated sugar, alcohol, gluten, & dairy from my diet & nothing has worked. Any topical cream recommendations. The sore is extremely painful & getting larger & oozing. I'm on my tenth dermatologist & he has no idea what to do for me. Please help. I'm desperate & in pain.

Has anyone talked about trying hyperbaric chamber sessions to help heal your lesions? I don't know if it's possible or if it would help, but it does work for sores that don't heal due to diabetes. My chiropractor even has a hyperbaric chamber. You may want to check with your doctors to see about this treatment. Also, you might want to see an oncologist rather than just a dermatologist. I don't have LyP, and I'm so sorry to hear about your struggles and pain with it. I hope you find relief soon.
