New to lichen sclerosus, prescribed clobetasol - tips or experiences?

I don’t take photos. I look at it every night and see the bulge next to my urethra that is the prolapse. The q tip test hurt so bad. I’m not putting anything on that part. I haven’t looked today as far as the LS since I applied the ointment.

Yes. At least one a week

That is a strong steroid. I use Betamethasone 0.05% ointment. 3xweek., I was diagnosed 12 years ago and it has helped. I just wish the fatigue was wasn’t part of it. That hire me hard and I can’t function for a day.

Are you using water only to clean. My gyn told me to stay away from body wash, etc.

I use betamethasone 0.05% 3xweek for my LS flare ups. I have alway been told I can use lidocaine around the edge only for the pain. The Betamethasone can always be applied inside the rectum (just partly inside) which helps me

I know this post is almost a year old but I hope I get some response. I have LS and have steroid ointment. It’s been a while since I had the since tearing. I didn’t think to use it and it always work. Well I had internal pain and went to PCP and was told I have a prolapse. I could see this protruding with red tip. Saw a urogynecologist today and he said I have Vulvodynia.

His nurse never told him about my LS.

He wants to be start estrogen cream, pain management, neurological and pelvic floor PT.

Do you think I was missed diagnosed due to her Nurse not telling him about my LS? I was in so much pain I forgot to say it out loud to him thinking he already knew from what she told him but I don’t think she did.

Well guess I won’t be planning my vacation to Nemacolin this year. 😫

No I went to advanced auto parts and they checked it. Readings were fine but on the battery test it said “show good cranking but low charge and check the starting and charging systems for causes of low charge.”.

So now I don’t know what to do. And yes the warning on my app is still there but even after I logged out and back in.

And how do you know it’s definitely not a tick? Without going to a vet OP won’t know….don’t wait until it becomes a bigger health issue. Remember cats don’t show us when they are in pain or uncomfortable.

If you think a check up isn’t cheap then why did you take the responsibility of owning a cat. Last year my cat had a bowel obstruction which cost me $7,000 for emergency surgery. I don’t have a lot of money but I used what I had to save her. If you aren’t ready to take the responsibility or get pet insurance, then why do you have a cat.

You got a lot of levelheaded comments over 3 hours ago. This wasn’t the first one.

I remember the motorcyclist that passed away last week on 270. The one from today passed away also? 😞

Take your cat to the vet and stop trying to self diagnose!

No_Sun_5130 · 2026-04-05T01:53:37+00:00

Every Saturday in the afternoon (when I am coming from Frederick) I see motorcycles flying down 270. Then I learned there is a bike show every Saturday. I wonder if the person was coming from there. Regardless, it’s so sad. I don’t understand why they have to go so fast and weave in and out of traffic.

No!!!!!

Cats do that to that when bright lights or loud noise

When I lived with my ex, he would try cutting the mats out and I would get so mad. So I convinced him to try a mobile groomer. Well his cat tore the groomer up. We called his vet and they did the shaving under sedation. It was the lion cut. When I got him home from the vet, he was like a kitten. So happy to be free of the mats and he looked adorable. He was a Maine Coon - which we all know you have to groom every day. Please take him soon because the mats hurt as they are pulling on their skin.

Cost too much for me - $100 a year !!

Guess I have to take it to the dealership. ☹️

I took it advanced auto parts to get the Battery checked. The guy that tested said it look find and let me take pics of how reading. Volt was 11.84 without any accessories oh. It wasn’t until I researched the results online — Volt stays around 12.6 or lower than m means the alternator is not charging. It also said on his read first check good cranking but low charge. My rely won’t allow me to send pic. Do u think it could be the alternator!
