Asking for Self, Female, 28 years old, lhr
AOA.... actually I have to ask about my facial eczema 2 weeks ago I was diagnosed with eczema patches in face as red rashes like patches and peeling of skin prescribes advacort along wd tablet t were all gone very soon ... after now 2 weeks I m feeling on my cheeks again there are hard dry much intense want to ask should I use tablet t day or advacort again to treat them as it's steroid it harmful if I use it again or what else should I follow..??? kindly advice sumthng as it's about face so I m much worried about this....
walsam, Eczema regardless any where on the face and body indicates that you have very dry skin there, and it needs to be kept moist , you need to use good emollient like E45 cream or something equivalent.
yes you should not be using the steriod on the face for more than 2 weeks, and to get another review done on the skin to see whether you need something else.\
hope this helps.
thanks
