Weaker<unk> s are utilized for thin-skinned and sensitive areas, especially areas under occlusion, such as the armpit, groin, buttock crease, and breast folds. Weaker<unk> s are used on the face, eyelids, diaper area, perianal skin, and intertrigo of the groin or body folds. Moderate<unk> s are used for atopic dermatitis, nummular eczema, xerotic eczema, lichen sclerosis et atrophicus of the vulva, scabies (after scabiecide) and severe dermatitis. Strong<unk> s are used for psoriasis, lichen planus, discoid lupus, chapped feet, lichen simplex chronicus, severe poison ivy exposure, alopecia areata, nummular eczema, and severe atopic dermatitis in adults. To prevent tachyphylaxis, a<unk>  is often prescribed to be used on a week on, week off routine. Some recommend using the<unk>  for 3 consecutive days on, followed by 4 consecutive days off. Long-term use of<unk> s can lead to secondary infection with fungus or bacteria (see tinea incognito), skin atrophy, telangiectasia (prominent blood vessels), skin bruising and fragility. The use of the finger tip unit may be helpful in guiding how much<unk>  is required to cover different areas of the body.
