No pain, slight gain

My current reduced regimen of 40mg on and 0mg off (days) has had surprisingly little effect on my ulcer. It does seem to be coming back albeit slowly. The last time i saw my dermatologist he gave me a few shots of cortisone to the area, causing some bloody areas that healed up quickly. These ruddy spots are a result of the needle marks almost two weeks ago. After I shower, I will often leave the area uncovered for a few hrs, drying it out. There is little or no pain.

reduction

I am starting to eliminate taking any Prednisone every other day, 40mg on and 0mg off. As the pic(s) illustrate, some of the ulcer has returned, albeit in a much more mild form. When I shower, I apply Hibiclens (that strange expensive soap in the aqua blue bottle) to the area. It doesn't hurt at all and I know the area is as clean as can be expected. i don't rub or scrub the area because it would cause some bleeding. Its as if my skin is thin, easily damaged.
