I'm really concerned because I've been experiencing itchy, swollen, and crunchy skin on my breast for about 10 to 15 days now. Whenever I scratch the area, it sometimes starts bleeding. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

My skin's been really dry and it's causing quite a bit of pain. Someone suggested I try using Venusia cream, but I'm worried it might have steroids in it. Can you help me figure out if this cream is safe to use, or if I should look for something else?

if you want to ensure that the cream you are using does not contain steroids, you can use Venusia Max Cream. It is a steroid-free moisturizing cream that can help with dry and painful skin. Apply a thin layer of Venusia Max Cream on the affected area twice a day for best results.
