Red Rash On Face What Can I Use

I have developed facial rash, can Canex v help get rid of them? ## Hello, Ray! How are you? The best thing to do would be to see your doctor to discover what has caused the rash and find out what the appropriate treatment would be. If Canex V is used inappropriately, it could actually make it worse. The FDA lists its typical side effects as including skin redness, dryness and irritation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Can I use Canex T for my excema on my eye? ## i have warts on my thighs and around vagine for more than 4yrs.i consult many doctor and they priscribe aldara cream but its not working.im worried plz help ## M suffering from eczaema,ring worms on my body n auckney on my face,i don't know wat to use pls help

I used some tac 0.1 in eucerin cream on my face in spots were zits would not go away and now I look like I have full blown acne. it has little blisters. I just used it on my face so can the rest of my body be in the sun or not? how long until this goes away as the zits I had before were minimal and I should of never used it in the first place..... so stupid!!! ## Yes, that was a bad idea. It contains Triamcinolone, which is listed by the FDA as a steroid class medication and they can actually cause acne as side effects. However, this would not explain the blistering, so you should have that checked out by your doctor. Other side effects to topical use may possibly include skin irritation, dryness and redness. Have you ever gotten cold sores? If so, that may explain the blisters, since s...

I use a new marry Kay night serum now one side. of my face is all red and wellped up. it stings like it's on fire and is itchy and sensitive to touch. benadryl and hydrocortisone cream aren't. working if you have any suggestions I would realty appreciate it. ## Hi Brenda, Is the marry kay night serum what caused the skin irritation to begin with, or is it something you've just been trying to treat for a while now? If the marry kay serum is what caused it, then it only makes sense to consider switching to another brand with either less ingredients or with different more natural ingredients all-together. As far as treating the skin irritations, I'd suggest lavender essential oil. It works really well for that burning sensation you mentioned, as well as for any inflammation...

red rash covering upper body and arms a little on face.medication is amox tr-kcl 875 tab ## Hi anton, A "severe skin rash" is actually listed as an uncommon but severe side effect of Amoxicillin, where it mentions that you should contact your doctor immediately. Ref: nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a685001.html Skin rashes are often caused by an allergic reaction to the medication or its binders and fillers. If this is the case, your doctor may end up having you switch to another antibiotic. Did this happen on the first day you started taking it?

Hello i have been prescribed medrol 4 mg. For a sinus infection, along with a antibiotic,nasal spray.my face is red,lil puffy and im a lil itchy. Should i be worried, n call the doctor ## Hello, Linda! How are you doing? Yes, it would be best to have these symptoms checked out to be safe. There's a chance they may just be side effects, but you could be having an allergic reaction. Medrol is classified by the FDA as a steroid and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia and nervousness. Antibiotics may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Has it gotten any worse? ## For a reaction such as this, I would feel more confident in asking my pharmacist. My opinion only, think they are more up...

Rash on inside of lips; itching, burning, hurting lips ## Hi Belle, Lido is not known to be marketed in the USA, although I did find out that Lido may be available in Thailand as a brand name for Lidocaine. The abbreviation makes sense so I have no reason to think otherwise on this. Regarding the side effects you mentioned, they are most likely related to those on Lidocaine's side effect list, posted below: -burning or discomfort in the place you applied the patch -redness or swelling of the skin under the patch Some side effects can be serious. The following symptoms are uncommon, but if you experience any of them, call your doctor immediately: -hives -skin rash -itching -difficulty breathing or swallowing -swelling of the face, throat, tongue, lips, eyes, hands, feet, ankles, or l...

How are you doing? Sorry about the problem that you're having. However, that really doesn't give the impression of being a medication reaction or allergy. Have you consulted your doctor? There's a chance that you may have something else going on that needs medical treatment.

rash on face, cheeks and forehead ## Just finished my third week on Viibryd been on 40 mgs for four days and now have a red rash on my face. Should I stop taking it? ## It may be the sign of an allergic reaction, but since it's isolated to your face, it's difficult to say. Have you contacted your doctor? That would be the best thing to do, so you can discover if it's due to the medication or something else. You can learn more Viibryd details here. ## I have a dr appt on friday.

I used this cream for an allergic reaction to an antibiotic a few months ago at the suggestion of a pharmacist. (I livein Mexico). Now I have an allergic reaction to Ibuprofen that looks the same - red blotches on my face and chest. Will it work for this, too? ## Hi Lilly, Based on my research, Clotrimazole/betamethasone cream can be used to relieve redness, itching, and swelling due to infection. It is a combination of an anti fungal and corticosteroid- which can help to reduce inflammation and help prevent the release of symptom-causing chemicals due to an allergic reaction. Antibiotics are very strong in relation to Ibuprofen, therefore, if this cream worked for a reaction you had to an antibiotic I imagine that it could also help you with the allergic reaction that Ibuprofen caused....

A 14 yr old boy has taken only one dose of Zempred 8mg for a severe allergy on his face & arms (rash which is red, itchy and sandpaper like) in combination with Fluticort ointment. Is it fine to discontinue the pill and have a non steroidal med instead as I'm afraid of giving him a steroid since he's asthmatic too? Will stopping the medicine after only one pill of Zempred cause further harm?

Is there anything else I can help with? ## Willy, please look under Prolia side effects on this site. We have almost 900 people writing and talking about Prolia.

I took my first dose of augmentin this evening and when I was going to sleep my hands started itching. I finally got annoyed enough to go look for some cortisone cream and when I turned on the light I saw that my whole body was red - except my face. It's worst on my feet, inner part of legs, stomach and arms. My hands and feet are what itch the most. I just took Benadryl and a probiotic. Should I be concerned? Will this go away in the morning? It's driving me nuts already. ## SDB YES you should be concerned. Your experiencing an allergic reaction and should seek assistance immediately. Please visit your nearest urgent care or emergency room for supportive measures that can assist you before some effects can prove debilitating for life.This is serious I want to impress upon you t...
