Can you tell me if betnovate n cream is suitable for treating psoriasis or eczema? I understand treatment can vary from one person to another, but I'm really curious if this cream is effective for these conditions.

View allI've got these acne scars and ongoing acne on my cheeks that just won't go away. My doctor recommended I try Eumosone M. Do you think this could actually help with my situation? Would love some guidance on this!
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

I've been really worried about these itchy rashes that have come back again on my body, and I'm not sure why they're happening. A while back, I had rashes on my face and scalp, and after seeing a local doctor, I found out I had a high IGE level of 930. The meds seemed to help back then, and my rashes went away, but now they're back even though my IGE level is down to 330. I stumbled upon something online about Staphylococcus aureus possibly being the cause, and on top of all this, I'm dealing with digestion problems. I'm really confused and would love some guidance to figure out what's going on. Could these issues be connected, or am I looking in the wrong direction?
Staphylococcus aureus is a type of bacteria commonly found on the skin and in the nose, which can cause infections, including skin conditions like atopic dermatitis, eczema, and impetigo; given your history of recurring itchy rashes, high IgE levels, and digestion problems, it's possible that S. aureus is contributing to your symptoms, especially since S. aureus can produce toxins that exacerbate skin conditions and may also be linked to gut health issues; consult a dermatologist or an allergist to discuss

I've been following up on that injury I mentioned before. Do you think it's a good idea to use Betadin and let the wound stay open to air? I ended up putting turmeric powder on it, and now it's sort of caked on the wound. I'm worried that if I try to clean it, it'll take off the part that's already healed. That wound on my leg from the bike accident, about a month and a half ago, mostly healed but theres still a small area thats raw. It keeps getting this clear, watery fluidnot yellowish thoughthat seems to stop it from healing fully. I've been seeing Dr. Prashanth at Vijayshree hospital, and the dressing has helped with the pain a lot. I've been using Augmentin D and Betadin as instructed, but I'm still using turmeric since it's ayurvedic. What should I be doing differently to finally heal this completely?
To promote complete healing of the remaining raw wound area, consider the following: continue regular dressing and antibiotic treatment as advised by Dr. Prashanth BN; gently clean the wound with saline solution to remove the accumulated turmeric powder; apply a thin layer of Betadin ointment, but avoid keeping the wound open, instead cover it with a sterile dressing; and maintain good wound hygiene and monitor for signs of infection, such as increased redness, swelling, or yellowish discharge.
