Lymphangitis, Skin Condition, Clotting, Chronic Dermatitis, Psoriasis, Infected Foot, Lesion, Redness And Inflammation. Medication?

Some Dr. adviced me to take Plavix to prevent clots from a lymphangitis caused by an infection of the skin condition such as Psoriasis in one foot. What is better in this case the Plavix for 21 days or Aspirin 325 mg?
I suffer from chronic dermatitis or psoriasis in my foot that usually is infected but it caused a distant infection on the internal side of the ancle redness and inflamation with a red path from the foot to the lesion.

Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
the newer studies in psoriasis tell the psorasisd is caused by chronic inflamation of skin by one or more foods we take daily
if you can get blood tests for specific antibodies for milk wheat potato chana egg rice nuts and common food and after elimination of food components you can start recovering from a few wk of withdrawl of foods
along with low dose weekly methotrextate 2.5 mg twice a wk is beneficial in these conditions for 6 months you continue along with elimination and can apply local antibiotic and antiallergic ointment on skin affected bd
