What Causes Irritation And Redness On Scalp After Using Dermovate?

I have been using dermovate lotion on my scalp since June for frontal fibrosing alopecia. The skin on my scalp is very red and irritated. I can no longer suffer the side effects from this product. My scalp is so sensitive and my hair is thinning and shedding all over. I also have muscle pain in my lower back. I don t know if both are connected . Please advise. Thank you.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is "Male Patron Baldness" then it need to be treated with "Minoxidile 5 %" lotion and it need to continue for long term, it is advisable not to use "Dermovate" any more, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
