Hi Deb,
It's important to know that you are really wanting to cure the underlying disease that's manifesting in this very external spot on the flank. Drugs cannot effect cure, this one, steroids, antibiotics, anti- anything. Not within their reach.
And every time they are used, the external symptom disappears for a spell (usually a shorter and shorter spell with each use), while the deeper disease slowly advances.
See my Apoquel Alternatives Report, linked to in this article. Answers are there.
All the best in this. You're not alone in experiencing this, but you can step out of this dangerous medical paradigm and expect a completely different and decidedly better outcome than the average person experiences on a regular basis.
