Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Yes, dermatologist is right. If steroids used where there is no need can lead to worsening or appearance of new rashes.

I would like to have a look at the rashes you have. Please attach an image of the same here.

Meanwhile continue to apply Clindac A. Any rashes produced due to use of steroids will regress slowly.

Brief Answer:
Clindac A is good

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the image.

The lesions appear to be infected. An antibiotics cream like Clindac A is good. Continue applying the same.

If the lesion do not regress, then taking Tab Doxycycline 100 mg per day for a week along with applying Clindac will help.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.

Doxycycline

Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

Sorry for the delay in my response.

Tab doxycyline 100mg taken once daily after breakfast would help. This dose is for 10 day course. Also, apply calamine lotion in the night with clindac applied in the morning.

Hope, this helps.
