Avatar n tn I am 40 and I bought vichy retinol cream to treat minor facial wrinkles. My face is burning, I have red spots around my eyes, I have rash all over my face and chin. My skin is flaking and feels very dry. I am noticing some wrinkels in the places they never existed. What shall I do?
Avatar m tn I've had a raised area in my groin (right thigh) for about 5 months. I hadn't really taken notice of it until it led to my underwear becoming what I thought was just sweaty. I recently went to my doctor about it, and had her look at it. She diagnosed it simply as jock itch, and suggested I get some OTC medications for it (The usual athlete's foot medications), and also gave me a prescription for Triamcinolone (which I have not had filled thinking I wouldn't need it).
Avatar n tn Went to my internest, he prescribed me Pimecrolimus cream to use twice daily , found little improvement after using for 6 months , but dark spot discoloration is still there.
Avatar f tn These include topical, oral, and intralesional corticosteroids, topical agents like Menthol, phenol, pramoxine, capsaicin cream, vitamin D-3 ointment and topical anesthetics, UV light treatment using UV-B or UV-A plus psoralen and topical immunomodulators tacrolimus and pimecrolimus in steroid unresponsive cases. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar m tn Thank you - This week I have been using only a homeopathic topical cream called Florasone Cream - Cardiospermum tincture 10% and washing mildly with tepid to cool water with a wash cloth. It has subdued a bit and if it doesn't clear completely then my next course will be the cortisone. Again thank you.

Avatar f tn Hi When topical corticosteroids do not provide relief, sometimes more the doctor may consider prescribing some more potent corticosteroids for some period, in adults with may be needed for adults with eczema on the scalp, limbs, and trunk or those with chronic/ lichenified eczema. Newer two topical eczema drugs like pimecrolimus (Elidel Cream) and tacrolimus (Protopic Ointment) are reserved only for cases where corticosteroids have not been effective.

Avatar m tn Doctor told me is like a burning from the sun (heavy winter now in my country and no sun for days) and he gave me a cortisone cream for the face. I used the cream last night but today when i woke up i realize that in my ears, around my lips and mustache i get white flakes that go away when i touch them but keep coming back again soon after. Since last night i started using the cream my skin start peeling off. Is this a Seborrheic Dermatitis? If yes what is causing it?
Avatar n tn Apply OTC benzoyl peroxide to the face to reduce the oiliness. Apply an antibiotic cream such as erythromycin (erytop) and vitamin A based cream on pimples. Avoid eating oily stuff and Drink 3-4 liters of water a day. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.

Avatar f tn I am currently using Elidel (pimecrolimus) 1%. This is an immunosupressant cream...could this cause my immune system to be supressed and not produce the HIV anti-bodies? I have been using this for well over 3 months.
Avatar n tn well i heard that if you use alot of cream down there it makes it more possible for outbreaks to occur.. and im pretty sure i have a bikini line infection where the hairs along my bikini line become ingrown and I just dont know what is safe to use down there an what isnt. But I'd also like to know if there IS a cream treatment for HSV 2 that could prevent outbreaks.
Avatar m tn Hello, my cheeks began to become red a few weeks ago, then a rash began to appear(only on my right cheek first however it soon started to happen on my left), I tried fucidin cream on it because it was similar to a rash I had on my hand a while back, now it would somewhat go away but then it would come back again, now it's worse as my forehead has become extremely irritant, I've tried DiproBase cream on both my cheeks and forehead however they just become scaly.
