antihistamine

Avatar m tn So get an examination done by a surgeon to confirm the diagnosis.Till that time,try an over-the-counter (OTC) cream or ointment containing hydrocortisone (Cortaid, Preparation H),but it is to be applied sparingly to the affected area. A protective ointment that contains zinc oxide (Desitin, Balmex) also may help. If your symptoms are worse at night, take an antihistamine like benadryl to reduce itching until topical treatments take effect. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar n tn What you need to do is to stop using anything that causes an allergic reaction and to apply antihistamine cream or ointment to the affected parts. Ask your pharmacist for advice in choosing an over-the-counter preparation.
Avatar f tn I am female and every once in a while I get this round, red welt around my anus that is painful. I tried to keep tabs on what I ate that day to see if anything sets if off. Usually using a diaper rash ointment on it overnight relieves it, but since it is symmetrical I don't think it is considered a rash. Could it mean more of a problem or just try it as I am.
Avatar f tn I mentioned the allergic reaction to the gynecologist but she said that the rash on my lips and the Fluconazole were unrelated and gave me some antihistamine tablets to treat the new rash. After having used the prescribed medications, I woke up the next morning to the same itchy red lips and tightness in my throat. I stopped taking the medicine she had prescribed, took the remainder of the antihistamine tablets and the rash and tightness once again went away.
Avatar m tn I first noticed this last Sunday afternoon. It started with my ear. It was red and itching a lot. I put some antibiotics ointment during the week and it hasnt helped at all.

Avatar n tn Eczema can come and go and that might be what this is. Try AD ointment (which is for babies for diaper rash but people use it for tatoos) at night and put some gloves on over the ointment. See if that makes it any better.

Avatar n tn Hey all! Please help me out! I have problems with my eyes for about four months now. The persisting symptoms are photophobia and painful eyes. When i wake up, my right eye is painful and pink. Pink goes away fast but the pain generally remains (sometimes all day). I take gel lubricant and artificial tears, antihistamine + mast stabiliser eye drops; i've taken care for my matress, pillows and other »risk« material. (to cope with my allergy to mites).

5045042 tn?1365890100 I slathered my privates with a mix of cortisone creams (ointment was better there) and pawpaw ointment or similar. Around the anal area I used topical ointments for the itch, if that's a problem. If it's just the itchiness of the rash that is the problem and not the rashes themselves, and your doctors have had a good look at them, then be strong and, grit your teeth and know that the clearing forever of the virus is why we go through this crap. It can be sooo miserable. Good luck.
612551 tn?1450022175 Hello Jerry_NJ, Just finished reading your comments. Last year I had an eye infection. It started out as an itchy eye in my right eye. It was also very uncomfortable. I decided to go to the doctor about it. I actually went to an after hours clinic instead of going to my regular doctor because I didn't need an appointment to see a doctor at the walk in clinic. The doctor examined my eye and gave me a prescription eye ointment.
Avatar m tn when the itch gets too bad I use combined skin ointment Clotrex. Please help, this is very embarassing.
Avatar m tn Have you changed your under garments recently? Take antihistamine tablet and a apply steroid antibiotic ointment. If there is no change, you may contact any dermatologist.
Avatar n tn Apply calamine lotion at the site of the lesions and see if it helps. You could take some oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine. You need to maintain a good personal hygiene . Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin. For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g.

Avatar n tn What is the cure for this problem. itchy fingers and I relieve them by either really hot water or itch between my fingers. I have tryed Benadryl, Cordisone Cream, and A & D ointment. Nothing seems to work. I am so tired of my hands looking like this and then after the hot water they look like a massive burn victim. Now they are dry and peeling but still I get that tingle like they are ready to bust out in itchiness again.
Avatar m tn It looks like small bubbles filed with liquid and its growing to the point where i have to pop it. I went to dermatologist and was prescribed fluocinonid 0.05% ointment.
