I do not use any soap or cleanser at all on my face. (just fresh water wash) THe doctor then prescribed oral Adoxa, Ketoconazole and and it helped for just the duration of medication course. Again i was given injections of lonacart but it did not help. He has again prescribed me with stronger steroid BETASALIC which is also loosing its effect now. my eczema is spreading faster than ever and I am worried if it will continue to cover my whole face and if i will ever get rid of it?
