>Sigi, have you used fluorouracil (5-FU) cream? I think it's very effective for small lesions but it's very irritant.
No, I haven't.
There are a few available, but I don't know their names, apart from Solaraze (diclofenac) and Efudix (which has been superceded by less bad options).
There is the one that encourages your body to use the immune system to get rid of the keratosis (supposed to make the skin look good after).
There's one other, I think, there's diclofenac, and there's Efudix.
Bugger Efudix. It makes me think of the Polish option.......some people are drinking vodka in (what I prefer to believe is Eastern) Poland and one hits himself with a frozen turnip. The next says 'That's nothing' and hits himself with a frozen beet, and the third says 'Look at this' and chops his head off with a chain saw.
I read that in the newspaper!
