Irascible septuagenarian fed up with the psoriasis constantly at me :wink:

Usually rubbing the skin will increase blood flow which will redden the skin from beneath and the cream itself might raise the skin temperature causing greater redness, so colour change can be expected. However, if it lasts a long time then it might be a good idea to consult your doc just in case the cream has started an allergic reaction.
