Severe Reaction to Steriod Based Cream

Hello,

Stumbled across the site here while frantically trying to research ways to prevent scaring from my latest rash (the second of two) I received from a slip up (again) at physical therapy with being exposed to a steroid based solution while undergoing treatment for a torn disc in my back. I have attached two photos. One from the smaller and original rash from 9-10 weeks ago which I fear has scared, and the latest rash from this week on Monday. I am very nervous about this entire affected area leaving a massive scar and my surgeon has me using Caladryl as of yesterday the June 11th. You can see the outline from the first rash above the latest massive outbreak. What else can I be doing besides staying out of the sun and using the Caladryl until my body heals? Like I said, I’m very concerned about this. Thanks for the time and help…

Regards,

- Anders in Arizona

Response To Severe Reaction To Steroid Based Cream

Hello Anders,

Thank you for contacting me and sharing your situation. Your pictures say it all! I too can feel your frustration and dismay at the gross negligence that has occurred to you not only once but twice! This certainly is an outrage. For our website viewers I will clarify what Caladryl is: Caladryl Lotion is a topical analgesic drug product. It temporarily relieves pain and itching associated with rashes, minor skin irritation and minor cuts. It contains Pramoxine HCI and Zinc acetate as its active ingredients.

The problem here is that drug containing products such as this only alleviates the symptoms but has no effect on the healing process. Here is what I strongly recommend your using immediately to begin repairing and restoring the damaged skin tissue. Apply our MY DAUGHTER'S HAND & BODY THERACREAM to the affected areas twice daily. Not only will the natural ingredients begin to repair the highly damaged skin 7 layers deep but will additionally stop any itching and inflammation you are experiencing. This amazing product also contains anti-bacterial and anti-microbial properties to prevent any infections from occurring. I would also recommend your washing with our FACE & BODY WASH as this will not dry out the affected areas as most washes, soaps and cleansers do and further, it will begin the healing process as well as add necessary moisture to the skin tissues.

Please keep me posted as to your progress Anders and I wish you rapid recovery!

Warm Regards,
Nanette
