I have a prickly, burning, deep itching on my upper arms that started about 1 month after a deep sunburn. If I touch it, the itching becomes relentless and VERY uncomfortable. I have used cortizone cream, fungal cream, Vicks (as per suggestion on Internet), aloe; but the itching continues. There are also skin-colored bumps that have appeared. A pharmacist mentioned it could be a yeast infection. I have a prescription from 10/12 for hydroxyzine when I had shingles. Could I use it for this? ## Hi, Nanner! Sorry about the problem that you're having. Hydroxyzine is an antihistamine that is also used for its sedative like effects. Learn more Hydroxyzine details here. Thus, if it is a yeast infection, this medication isn't going to help. You need to see your doctor so they can look at...

debridement ointment ## I have a large wound on my left ankle. It started out as pressure ulcer and I was using hydrocortizone for the itching. I did not know that the cortizone would make my skin there very tender and at one point when I was washing a large patch of skin came off, so now I have a small patch of a wound. I am using Staphaseptic for the wound and a natural cream for the itching. It is healing slowly and there is some dead skin that needs to be removed. Is there an over the counter debraidment ointment to help get rid of the dead skin?? Thank, Bob ## I am 75 yrs old. I have Sakram troma. I have had 3 surgaries so far because of recurrence. It is malagnant. My doctor prescribs Elase oinment for the new wound as big as can be filled with a goose egg. I live in Iran, but my ...

my husband had a itchy skin bumps all over his body he tried cortizone creams they didn't work so the dr. put him on sulfameth/tmp ds it cleared up after 2 weeks but now he is having low grade fevers sometimes they are high also low blood pressure and chills and night sweats. Could this be related to his prescription ## Has he contacted his doctor, yet? These are not normal side effects associated with this antibiotic,the generic for Bactrim, the normal ones include: nausea, drowsiness, skin rash and diarrhea. However, there is concern about its use causing Stevens-Johnson Syndrome in some people and the symptoms of that can include some of what he's experiencing. This can be a very serious condition, so he should see his doctor immediately, so he can be tested for it. Learn mor...

I took this medication and it cause a reaction of hives to my skin. And now its very irratating all over my body, what should I take now. Benadryl or cortizone is not helping. ## Have you talked to your doctor? A non-allergic skin rash can be a common side effect of antibiotics and that probably explains why it isn't responding to the other medications. You may just need to try a different antibiotic and give this one time to get out of your system.

whether its from the sun or aging, lately I have deleloped a few bumps under my skin. They are not itchy or inflamed, just bumps of different sizes. I have used some creams including cortizone with no improvement. Is there something I can use to eventualkly smooth them out? ## Have you consulted a doctor? The real solution is going to come from determining what's causing them, then your doctor can advise you as to proper treatment options. Any theories postulated here, just from the limited information in your post, would just be guesswork and such as thing creates the risk of actually making the problem worse. Are you taking any medications, of any type? ## Metronidazole gel or its more expensive cousin Metrogel have worked great for me with the same condition ## Yes, I have consul...

Where can I purchase this cream in Missouri? Thank you. ## A very similar product Arth Arrest is available at Walgreens. This was the orginal Horse Lentiment. My wife has arthritis in both knees and has had cortizone injections, Synivisc injections and countless homeopathic pills with almost no relief. She got immediate relief using this after only three days. I am a former Assistant Director of a major pharmaceutical company and to me seeing is believing. ## I need to find a store that sells ArthriCare Odor Free Pain Relieving Rub in North Carolina. I am having a hard time finding it. Need it badly for Arthritis If anyone can help me. Thanks. ## Can I buy Arthricare in a container with a ball roller to rub on in Erie, Pa? I did about 2 or 3 years ago at a Rite Aid drug store, but they ...

I have fluid in my ear for over a year now. My NP tried me all the meds she could but nothing as worked. She finally sent me to an ENT and he has tried me on several meds as well as 2 surgerys( in med injection and a tube in the ear, but nothing as worked. I'm scheduled to a Cortizone injection in a couple of weeks(ugh!!), but my NP has just put me on Amox and Singular for an upper respiratory thing,and I thought it might help for my sinuses and maybe the fluid in my ear but no,it hasn't. I'm going run out the singular soon. Would taking some Benedryl with Amox possibly dry up that fluid and give me back my hearing? I need some relief! I really don't want to get that shot in my ear. He did that when he put the tube in and that hurt like hell. If I can avoid that I want to.

I have had a bad spinal injury since 2009. I constantly suffer in pain everyday. I have good days and bad days basically some where the pain is more tolerable then others. I have several ruptured discs in my lower back as well as nerve damage and found out last summer I also have damage to a few vertebrae in my TSpine now as well. An also have arthritis in my spine. I also have severe degenerative disc disease. I have gotten many epidural cortizone shots over the years. My problem is I have a very low threshold for pain. I need spinal fusion surgery, a discetomy and a laminecotmy. However I have gone to see several spine surgeons for opinions and the one that came the most highly recommended refuses to do surgery as he told me it is very risky and there is a high risk of my being in wor...

My daughter has a terrible skin rash concentrated on the face. We have tried much in the way of cortizone creams and allegy tablets. We have heard that droxyl OTC in pill form works. Is there such a thing?

I have heard that it you take INH for a year you can never have cortizone. Is this true.

The police raided my frinds house got lidocaine claims it tested positive as cocaine in the lab is this possible cause they're looking ay 5 years in prison ## It is related to cocaine, but there is no way it should be detected as such in an actual lab test, since that type of testing would clearly be able to distinguish between the two. Are there any other questions or comments? ## I am taking a random ua for a dui and was told I tested pos. for coke. I called b.s. then remembered I had just had x-ray guided cortizone/steroid shots for my sciatica. I'm not sure what all they put in those shots but before that they used novicaine. I know for sure that is why I tested pos. I just don't know how to prove to the court that those shots were the reason for a false pos. The clinic ...
