A member asked:

What is the best way to treat red dry flakey patches on the elbows, lower back and knees? (i have already tried using the anti fungal creams lamisil and lotrimin?

You should have this evaluated by a dermatologist. This does not sound like a fungus which those creams would treat. It may be psoriasis.

There are too many possible causes, with different treatments, to make any recommendation. See a doctor, ideally a dermatologist. Good luck.
