Suggest Treatment For Redness And Itching On The Neck
The front of my neck is red and is itching. Slight burning. Intensifies at night. I used a different skin cream and I m not sure if that is it. I ve tried the over the counter cortisone cream. This started on a Monday and now it is Tuesday. Should I continue with the hydrocortisone? -Thank you.
Hi. As per your case history you are having allergic dermatitis. My treatment advice is - 1. Avoid using any new products like soap or perfume. Also avoid sun exposure. 2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-b cream twice daily on it. 3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for itching. 4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks. Dr. Harshit bhachech. MBBS, DDVL.
