Common Questions and Answers about Lidocaine with hydrocortisone

Avatar n tn One online surgeon suggested it could be folliculitis. I applied neosporin, with no relief. Last night I applied the lidocaine 3% 0.5% hydrocortisone as indicated and also on that area. It is at 4 o'clock on the anal rim. How much longer should I wait until I make an appointment with a dermatologist?
Avatar f tn ask for a prescription of Hydroxyzone and I would also add go ahead and try a little hydrocortisone cream and maybe alternate it with a little lidocaine cream. My guess is it's part of the overall rash. If it doesn't improve, I would definitely call the doctor. Use the same philosopy as for the overall rash: clean, soothe, protect.
Avatar m tn I read that lidocaine can cause a seizure. I have had injections many times with no problem. What could have gone wrong?

Avatar n tn I feel it would be safe to say you have hemmroids,, you get them from heavy lifting, sitting for long periods of time, straining during bowel movements endless reasons. and the itching may just be from not cleaning well enough after b.m.'s and the hemmroids make this more difficult,, I personally use baby wipes and if that doesn't help, ask your dr. for a perscription for Lidocaine HCI 3% and Hydrocortisone Acetate 2.5% Gel.
Avatar f tn You should do a search as there are hundreds of threads dealing with this subject. The only way I got, and maintained relief was to LATHER my entire body with lotion TWICE a day. Many here swear by Gold Bond, green bottle, red cap. I couldn't deal with the menthol and I settled (tried 8 or 10 products) on Cetafil. I used so much that it became pretty expensive but could not have txed with out it.
Avatar m tn My doctor prescribed 3% lidocaine/0.5% hydrocortisone cream (which took two days to get). I was also using the hemorrhoid cream. In addition, I was using about 4-5 baby wipes to clean the area each time so that there was not one speck of anythiong left to irritate the hemorrhoids. Interestingly enough, about 6 days after that pain started, it began to decrease and after a couple more days, it was almost gone. I still had the external hemorrhoids but the hemorrhoid cream took care of them.
383138 tn?1314167773 I read later, it is common for women to have rt chest pain with a heart attack. Then, the well documented irregular heart beat with lidocaine. Now, I am certain that is what happened. It has scared me so badly (even though the pain relief was great). By the way, there was no mention of possible fatal side effects before hand. The pain relief will not help at all, if I am dead. So, if your cardiologist says NO.. That would definitely be my answer. NO.
Avatar m tn So I recently had a raw spot on the head of my penis which I THOUGHT I got from masturbation. One of the spots took a long time to heal because it was so raw, and along with it I had another raised red spot appear along with what looked to be some random pin sized red marks (5 max). After applying hydrocortisone for 4 days the small red spots are gone and the one larger remaining spot is almost vanished completely. At this rate, it will probably be completely cleared up within the next two days.

Avatar n tn one week penicillin concurrent with one week acyclovir, one week mouthwash (swallow) with hydrocortisone powder, nystatin, tetracycline, and diphenhydramine. two weeks tylenol, sporadically, never more than 3 g in one day. At the time of the test, I was still taking viscous lidocaine for throat ulcers. Used two 100 ml bottles in four weeks, just started third bottle. I seem to either be having a gastroparesis flare or something else.
Avatar f tn Hi just wondering if it's possible to lose weight while taking hydrocortisone....I'm exercising 4 to 5 times a week and eating right but still can't lose weight,,, all I'm losing is energy..I have a pituitary tumor btw...
Avatar f tn ve had quite a few stellate ganglion blocks and have had some success. They thought the lidocaine infusion might help the other pain I deal with and kill two (or more) birds at the same time so to speak. KittKat23-78, Sorry the infusion didn't help you!! I hadn't heard about having several a few days apart; I'll have to ask about it. Mine is (at least one) being paid for by worker's comp. I'm hopeful but also trying to keep things realistic and in perspective.

Avatar m tn I have been experiencing chronic pain on the head of my penis for more than a year and a half. I an a circumcised male with hypospadias. Anything that brushes against the area feels like sandpaper. This includes underwear (any type including 100% cotton), the touch of my hand, soft sheets, anything. I do not feel pain from squeezing/pressing on the area. I am in constant pain as I walk around during normal routine.
Avatar n tn Re: Lidocaine Enemas. I am warning everyone to be careful. My brother just died 3/31/12 from a lidocaine enema. He was only 28. (Lidocaine Intoxication) Lidocaine in liquid form. I don't want anyone elses loved ones to die like this. I hope everyone will be careful when dealing w/lidocaine. it is a dangerous substance when not used properly.
Avatar m tn When it comes to your health, sometimes you have to take things into your own hands unfortunately. You're you're own best advocate. Time to get proactive. Try to figure things out and ask the doctors for things (hounding them if necessary, even if it's just so they give in to shut you up). We know the 3 common possibilities.. -Something structural compressing a nerve or vessel. -Some local inflammation putting pressure on a nerve or vessel.
Avatar m tn again other doctor gave to me cream Hydrocortisone really it help me about eaching but my penis skin still thin and hurts me and im really dont know what to do is there any one can give me advice because i want something can recover my penis skin i want to know to make my penis skin thicker also i want to know is Hydrocortisone helps the skin to make thicker or not?
Avatar f tn There are no contraindications for using lidocaine for the purpose described. The only danger is that lidocaine completely anesthetizes tissue, which is why you can cut or suture an area treated by lidocaine. Thus it is possible to cause a tear or injury that would not be noticed until the lidocaine wore off. In the case of normal intercourse, this should not be a problem.

673999 tn?1226935279 The new standard inoffice bladder instillation for IC is Lidocaine instillation with bicarbonate solution. The lidocaine is a local anesthetic and the bicarbonate allows the lidocaine to penetrate the bladder wall to get to the bladder nerves. Lidocaine without the bicarbonate solution has only minimal bladder wall penetration and very short duration of action (minutes to an hour).
Avatar m tn Hi, does anyone have experience with these? I just started using them and for about 20 minutes after using one, I experience a burning sensation and extreme itchiness in my rectal area. It's so unbearable that I can't help but scratch it which I fear is only going to make it worse. Prior to inserting one, I don't even have any itch so It feels like they are just making my haemorrhoids more inflamed but these are supposed to do the opposite...
Avatar f tn More info if you have any would be great! Dont they cut cocaine with like benzocaine, or lidocaine, or something like that? If anyone knows? Yea, stop the coke though, every bit of Coke that makes it to your heart tissue, it kills it instantly!
643867 tn?1225298753 Why did your doctor put you on such an odd regimen of cortef? A normal body reaches a peak around 8am, falls throughout the day to reach roughly half around 2-4pm, then keeps falling to a low around midnight. Taking it 4 times a day would be weird for a body. 20mg total is a replacement dose (I have no adrenals, and that is what I take) and to take it like that would drive my body nuts. I take 15mg at 7am and 5mg at 2 or 3pm.
