In month 17 of LongCovid, earlier images below this set. Minor lesion at base of back, L leg/shin still presents “covid” type rashes along with psoriasis, minor but bleed profusely. R arm aches (like over exercise). R-arm lesions bleed profusely when scabs/plaques peel off, needle-stabbing pain and intense itching, always white waxy pustules or dysfunctional follicles: when present, nothing heals. Hand and wrist much improved but remain volatile and re-erupt.
