What Causes Rash On Groin Area And Swollen Legs After Having Proctosedyl Suppositories?

I have started taking proctosedyl suppositories and cream for my haemorrhoids as well as a cream called novasone. My groin area has broken out in a rash which is now spreading rapidly all over my body. My legs are swollen and a large layer swelling has developed around my penis. I have taken claratyne but the rash is spreading. What other medications can I take firstly for the haemorrhoids and secondly to stop the rash and welts developing

Hello,

You are allergic to the medication most probably. It's better to go to the ER and get a hydrocortisone shot taken.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Harshita
