Hi there, To answer your question in short, yes, Triamcinolone is a steroid and can be used locally for treating eczema. I would also like to know a few things like
-Have you or your doctor found a cause for your eczema?
-what other symptoms do you have along with the eczema?
-Do you have any other associated condition like Diabetes?
Thank you
