Question

I've been dealing with this annoying itch in my leg for over a week now. It seems like it only happens to me during the summer months. I'm using Mycoderm powder, but the itching just won't go away. Any idea what's going on or what else I could try?

Question

I've been worried ever since I used Betnovat for a month or two last year and then stopped when I found out it could be harmful. A couple of weeks after I quit, I noticed these bumps showing up and now my skin is really sensitive and dry. Do you think these are side effects from Betnovat, and if they are, will my skin eventually recover? How long might it take for everything to get back to normal? I've started using Cetaphil cleanser and Physiogel cream, but I'm not totally sure if any of this is related to Betnovat. Could you advise on this?
