Roughness On Scrotum, Burning And Redness. Diagnosed As Eczema. Prescribed Tablets And Nuforce Gm Cream. How Long Should The Cream Be Used?

Sir, 2 weeks back i felt some roughness on the skin of my scrotum . I rubbed it and immediately started feeling burning sensation, the skin then turned red. The next day i consulted a dermatologist and he told me it was eczema and gave me these tablets: oxidon plus, atarax and cream: nuforce gm. Now I have no itching or burning sensation but the skin is still red. How long should I use the cream? The tablets have been prescribed for a month. Can I use another tube of cream if one is finished? Do I apply it for a month?

Hi,
Thanks for query,
You should continue taking medicine as per your doctors advise.
Usually eczema takes more time to resolve.
The redness needs attention.if you gets any discharge from the site stop using cream other wise you can continue using it until your next visit to dermatologist.
Have a nice day.
