How to treat cutaneous amyloidosis?

Patient's question:

I have been experiencing dizziness recently, and I can't eat properly either. My mental state isn't great either. The hospital check-up revealed a blood issue. How can skin amyloidosis be treated?

Doctor's answer:

For the treatment of primary cutaneous amyloidosis, there is currently a lack of effective treatment methods. The first commonly used in clinical practice is hormones. Topical corticosteroid creams, whether in individual packaging or as local anesthetics, can quickly relieve symptoms but are prone to recurrence. In clinical diagnosis, potent or superpotent hormones are commonly used. The second is retinoids. Typically, 0.1% retinoic acid is used externally, which may have some effect but takes longer to take effect. The second is surgical and physical therapy.
