Topical symptomatic treatments such as topical lidocaine or benzyl alcohol (Zilactin) may help relieve symptoms. Using an antiviral medication may shorten the duration of cold sores if started very early. If you experience very frequent bouts, your doctor may prescribe an antiviral medication as a cold sore treatment or to prevent cold sores.
topical acyclovir is ineffective for genital herpes recurrences. it should never be prescribed because it basically wastes your money. Your provider needs to update their prescribing information and stop prescribing it to their patients.
m prescribed a lidoderm 5% patch, which is basically a patch infused with lidocaine. It helps with the nerve/muscle type pain I have in the lower left leg facing outward. By itself, for bad pain it wouldn't be worth the money, but I'm prescribed Lortab 10/650's ( a narcotic ) and the two used together seem to help lower this pain better than either one treatment alone.
You could Try some lidocaine gel although I'm not sure it's OTC...I just dont remember...Look for an ointment that's topical and containing any kind of numbing agent. Try to leave it alone so a scab can form and that will help. Breathe through your mouth. Try to get an appt sooner. Go to an Urgent Care and they can prescribe a topical anesthetic. Take Motrin or Aleve.
I can understand why you used the bactine; we will do anything when we're in pain...
This is fairly easily treated - use a topical antibiotic ointment along with your antifungal. Bacitracin works wonders. I'd recommend getting it with lidocaine as well in order to help any associated pain. Follow up with a moisturizing lotion. It's important to apply this after showering. If you can, I would recommend applying it 3x daily.
It typically clears up in a couple weeks.
She would get little anal fissures so our family doctor wrote us a script for a compounded ointment but what really helped give her some relief was the Lidocaine topical gel our doctor prescribed for her. I put a small amount around her anus which created a numbing effect so that she would stop holding back when she had to go. I guess doctors use Lidocaine for numbing before different procedures and my doctor said it worked wonders for hemorrhoids, too.
What type of antibiotic is it? If it is an ointment, these are like Vaseline types, then it will make your hair greasy.
Once the cut is completely healed over, you will be able to use your normal shampoo that will get rid of the greasiness.
Hi,
2 nights ago I was wiping after urinating & had such severe pain I jumped & trembled. I felt the area and on the inside of the labia majora I had a bright red nodule the size of a pea. I got a mirror & looked and lightly felt it. It was solid & movable under the skin but the pain was insane. It woke me up twice & I ended up putting the topical lidocaine for my chemo port just to get some rest. Well, this morning it hurt even worse, any movement & instant pain.
You can get a prescription ointment with lidocaine and that will numb your skin. If you have not started tx yet you may be worrying more than is necessary. The shots are not painful, they give you a teeny tiny needle that is very sharp and you inject into fat so there is almost no sensation. I was worried about the injections but my fears about the injections were unfounded and I got through 48 weeks of tx (and 40 of them with an additional shot of Procrit) without any pain from the shots.
Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful and you can take oral antiinflammatories like ibuprofen/acetaminophen after consulting your doctor. In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
try topical anelgesic cream it does wonders for mine, if that does not work ask your sdocto for somethin containg lidocaine
Though there is no definite treatment , ice application and topical anesthetics (eg lidocaine cream or gel) or 5% topical doxepin may help sometimes . Numerous oral medications can be used but the results vary from person to person . Symptomatic relief can be provided by gabapentin , lamotrigine ,amitriptyline , pimozide , Oxcarbemazepine or Risperidone .Cervical spine stimulation and restricting outdoor activity or wearing full sleeved clothes relieve the symptoms .
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.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
I looked it up and it's a topical spray with an antimicrobial ingredient (benzethonium chloride) and a pain reliever (lidocaine). I don't see anything that would interfere with actual clotting mechanism in the body as a whole. The best thing to do is ask your doctor or pharmacist before using this.
