Hello NonaChris:
I don't remember all the different cremes I was prescribed for my neck, which got so bad it looked like strips of burned bacon peeling off, but the one I remember best, and seemed to help the most, was the Silver Sulfadiazine. I think this creme is used for burn patients. I'd rub a huge amount on my neck and then wrap a towel around it. Today, you can't even tell my neck was in such a horrible condition, so it will get better! Let us know how you do, and prayers headed your way.
