Talk to Dermatologist on Eczema Ointment

person-avatar

Asking for Self, Male, 31 years old, Lahore

I've been prescribed Effigenta Ointment for Hand Eczema, to apply it on hand. To get maximum effects, how long should I leave the ointment on fingers & palm? (as my both hands are bound, can't use it)

You can safely used it for 7-10 days depending how soon your hand eczema responds to the treatment.

U apply the medicine till u don't wash ur hands. There is no prescribed time. But as it's ointment it won't wash away so soon either.

Dear if u have pain then it's not simple ring worm. It's better u visit a dermatologist at the earliest. As having an infant u shld never neglect ur own health. Plz try to get an appointment as soon as possible.

Using Effigenta Cream From 15 Days
It Helps alot in Resisting the Thicken Skin But Not Helping in Removing Dryness and Itching
