Hi doctor,
I have eczema. There is redness in my cheeks. I have used Corticosteroid cream for six days. Are there any side effects in using it?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Corticosteroids should never be applied without a doctor's advise. Also, there are certain steroids which should never be applied on the face.
If you could send me photos and details, I will be able to give you proper suggestions. Till then, do not use anything on your own. It does more harm than good.
