Be careful on how much steroid cream you use. Your body can become addicted to it and go through horrible withdrawal. The withdrawal is much worse than the initial problem.
This is so true. Sounded crazy to me at first but it makes sense. I have really bad eczema in the winter and this year my derm switched me to Cerave products and no steroid cream.
I had no idea that my body was withdrawing from the cream when the itching was worse after winter and I wasn't using the cream anymore.
Cerave products are fantastic so far! Plus I have a cream called Sarna anti ich lotion that she gave me. Smells like Ben Gay but works nicely.
