Avatar f tn I have had for the past 2 years small red bumps on my face in top of my nose, cheeks, around the nose, forehead, etc...I get red but not as much like other people. I used Elidel for 11/2 years and it worked great now I had to stop because of fear that it causes cancer. I have been using metrogel for 8 days but at first it was great and now my pimples are starting to come out again is that part of the process???
Avatar f tn My husband and I deployed leaving my mother in law to care for our son. She mistakenly put the med on his face and the area around his mouth is now discolored. He's a brown skinned baby with a huge white patch around his mouth. She applied this med over a year ago and we have been told by other doc that the color would come back in a year. To no avail has his mouth even begin to start darkening in. Is there anything I can purchase to aid in the coloring in of this area? Thank you so much.
Avatar m tn Topical antifungals and mild steroids are the usual treatment and combination of the two can be used to treat stubborn patches. You should also apply a hypoallergic moisturizer after washing with a mild face was like Dove. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps.
Avatar f tn What does skin atrophy look like? I used a steroid cream Triamcinolone on my face months back. I used it periodically over the course of 3 to 4 months. Now my facial skin looks almost scarred. I can't quite tell if it is permanent scarring or atrophy. Can a steroid cream produce scarring? Is this reversible? How long does it usually take to reverse?
Avatar f tn A few months back, I had a very bad reaction on my face to a skincare line. I was currently using triamcinolone for an existing exema condition in other areas of my body. I called the nurse at my dr's office and she suggested that I use the triamcinolone cream on my face to clear up the reaction. It worked and in the months passing as I tried to get my facial skin back to normal, I used the triamcinolone locally, on occasion if I had another outbreak on my face.
Avatar m tn , For over the past two weeks, I have had a flat, red rash that appears like a sunburn on my face and particulary the neck. When I am in the sun or heat, it increases in itchiness and burning. A few days before the rash started, I had finished my second five-day course of 750mg Amoxicillin for dental work. Also, a few days (3 or 4) before the rash started, I had a very brief (3 seconds or so) unprotected oral sex exposure of which I was the recipient (I am male, received from female).
Avatar m tn For the last couple years I have been having issues with dry skin mostly and within the last year it has gotten really bad and I kept putting off the doctors, now its at the point I can't even really wash my face or head without extreme discomfort.
Avatar f tn I have a Nyastin/Triamcinolone acetonide ointment that expired in November, would it be safe to use this or should I go back to the doctor for another prescription? Over the counter medicine has never worked for me. Also, is it normal for a 20 year old to have hemorrhoids?
Avatar n tn I did that the first 2 days. I can feel small pimple like eruptions under my skin on my face and neck beside the round raised blotches on my face. What do you think is the problem? H-E-L-P !!!!! Please. Thank you for any advice you can offer me.
Avatar m tn Triamcinolone cream 1% the question is can l use it for progrome genital herpes? Sorry if the explanation made the question unclear.....Thank you.
Avatar f tn Don't use Triamcinolone anymore if you can help it as overuse can cause real problems. We read about it here all the time because it can thin the skin. I would try Psoriaflora cream or clear 100% aloe vera.
Avatar m tn If I used triamcinolone acetonide cream(its suppost to reduce the immune systems responce, I was told) can it take more than 3 months for my results to be conclusive? I haven't taken my 12 week test yet. I've only taken a 5 week test and a 9 week test(both negative) Please help me out, im freaking out!
Avatar n tn Hello, These symptoms can be due to folliculitis skin. Keep the area clean and apply some topical antiseptics. Also wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove.Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful.In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case.
Avatar m tn When I went to the dermatologist he said I had a little fungal infection. It is on the bottomside of the head of my penis. He prescribed nystatin triamcinolone acetonide and I used it twice a day as instructed. I noticed a small difference of it getting better, but it is not gone. Every once in a while I feel a sharp pain there. What should I do? I am willing to do anything to get rid of this. Should I keep putting the nystatin triamcinolone acetonide on? I would appreciate your input.
Avatar f tn They are absorbable, surgical sutures composed of highly purified connective tissue (mostly collagen) derived from either beef or sheep intestines and covered with chromium salt solution to delay absorption.Moreover chromium can be used in the composition of stainless steel also.So it is good that you have decided to check the composition with your son’s doctor. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
Avatar m tn I don’t know about male yeast infection and also not so pro on the related terms. and maybe some time my vocablulary be incorrect. so pardon me on these.
Avatar n tn It may be a allergy to something new that you have tried? A new medication, a new detergent, anything you can think of? I use Triamcinolone. It is a steroid ointment and it is too much to use all over your body! You can't use that much. You can such down your adrenal glands. Definitely don't ever use steroid on your face unless directed by a doctor and then you will have to taper off of it because the cells on your face are different. And, don't get it in your eyes.
Avatar m tn , and discontinued use of it and the redness on the left side of my face (which was not the side i was putting the medicine on I might add) went away for the most part. I discontinued use of the cream Monday afternoon (Jan. 11th) for clarification. Over the next two days I noticed three things. First, I although the redness on the left side of my face had disappated for the most part, it had left a kind of light pink ring around my left eye.
Avatar n tn 1%) cream and ointment (the cream was to be used once a day in the mornings, and the ointment was to be used once a day in the evenings). She instructed me to use the cream/ointment very sparingly, avoid getting or rubbing it into my eyes, and to only use for 14 days. After 14 days I am supposed to switch to an emollient. I am about a week into the treatment and the eczema is clearing up nicely. I was very careful not to get the cream or ointment into my eyes.
Avatar m tn m allergic to the triamcinolone right? But ya know, she had the nerve to tell me I may have been allergic to the needle! The metal! What?? So I just want to know how serious this is. This one website says that hives are a serious side effect for which I should seek emergency medical help. But right now I'm just taking some benedryl and hoping it goes away like last time (and I think it is...) But how serious is an allergic reaction to triamcinolone?
Avatar m tn I had a reoccurring fungal infection on the tip of my penis that I believe has been cured through oral fluconazole. Part of the treatment was Nystatin/Triamcinolone. For a time I also used Ciplopirox but it made the skin very waxy looking so I stopped that treatment. Now the underside of the Penis is pink in color and sex/rubbing in my underwear aggravates the condition, causing it to burn for a short period and get more red in color.
Avatar f tn The one way I can connect your face and eye is with a clinical diagnosis of 'rosacea'.Please do not use steroids here and you might land up with a peri-oral dermatitis. Do consult your doc.
Avatar f tn t get diagnosed but by using the medication and seeing which ones helped to clear the rash, i decided it is ringworm. I used Triamcinolone acetonide on it for the first day. After I stopped, it grew twice as big. So you were right to say that the steroids would make ringworm worse. So after the first day I used lotrimin and it still grew. It's been four days of me putting it on the whole day and it's drying up.
Avatar m tn I have spent so much money on everything. On antibiotics, you name it. I am presently on antibiotics now. The pain is awful! I have scratched so bad that I bleed, the bumps on my head keep appearing. So there is my story!
