Is Betnovate Advisable For Redness And Burning Sensation On The Neck?

Hey, i have been using RETIN A 0.01% for past 4 days on my face and neck. And my neck has become very red and extremely sensitive. I am not even able bend my neck. Its so streched and painful! As if i got injured or burnt. So on that area i have started applying betnovate gm to avoid the problem. Do tell me if its okay to do it this way?

Hello.

First off, you need to stop the Retin A for a while.

I wouldn't advise using a steroid cream like the betnovate for more than one week and in addition to applying it you can, 30 minutes later, apply either Calendula cream or Aloe Vera lotion
