Not sure .. I'm a past patient so this isn't professional advice ... maybe try something very non-fragrant, etc. like an AquaPhor or something like that type of cream to help the dryness along ... be careful, though, bcz many things sting it!  Benadryl cream used sparingly is an idea to ask your Dr. about ?
