We are taking the jacket off a couple times a week to let the skin air out and so that she can clean herself naturally, but this one spot is horrendous. There is some hydrocortisone on the area, and she was licking herself as I was snappjng these.

My sister’s male cat has bladder problems and he must stick to the Hills diet, but does it work for major skin irritation?
Mate you can’t just take random Internet comments like this as medical advice. You pet needs medical attention from an actual vet who can examine the patient.
If you can’t afford that, ask for donations to help you pay the vet or ask local animal shelters or vets if they have any options to help you. But stuff like giving the cat random ointments or changing their foods without any actual diagnosis is not a way to help a suffering animal.
The fact that you have your cat in a jacket most of the week preventing her from cleaning herself several times a day as is normal for cats is a whole 'nother red flag. That is extreme and not something you should be subjecting a cat to without a vet telling you to do it anyway.
Our boy with allergies had rashes all over his face and eyes and it got better after switching foods! This was after vet visits and different medications too
