Hullo Tom,
An ante-natal Mother who consulted me for the first time yesterday, has mild, controlled psoriasis at the base of her scalp and areola/nipples. She occasionally uses Mometasone furoate (Elecon) lotion on the scalp area and sorbolene cream and gentle exfoliating, with her fingers, while showering, on the breast areas.
The psoriasis exacerbated on her breasts a few weeks post natal with her first baby 2 years ago and she persisted with breastfeeding, (condition un-diagnosed at the time), until resorting, due to painful breastfeeding, to fully expressing and bottling her reluctant baby, persisting for 10 wks until her supply significantly decreased.
Would you be happy to eloborate on your comments from Appendix E, P 1199 on the use of Elecon ung. or cream or any of the other preparations listed and varying strengths, that you feel maybe safer or recommended eg. Locoid etc. ?
This Mother is due to have an elective C/S in 2 wks time. Thank you for your time.
Regards Janette
