View allI've been dealing with Tinea Cruris near my crotch, and it's finally cured, but before I saw a dermatologist, someone advised me to use Betnovate. Now, I've noticed that it's caused some thinning of my skin. Is there anything I can do to help with that?
Betnovate (betamethasone) can cause skin thinning (atrophy) with prolonged use. _Reversing Skin Thinning_ 1. _Stop using Betnovate_: Discontinue use to prevent further skin thinning. 2. _Moisturize_: Use gentle, fragrance-free moisturizers to hydrate the skin. 3. _Topical creams_: Apply creams containing hyaluronic acid, ceramides, or niacinamide to help restore skin thickness. 4. _Avoid further irritation_: Refrain from scratching or using harsh products on the affected area. 5. _Consult a dermatologist_: Schedule a follow-up appointment to monitor progress and adjust treatment if necessary.

Can using Vaseline help with my Perioral Dermatitis? I think it might've started because I was using a topical steroid cream to lighten my skin. What should I do about this?
Using Vaseline may not be the most effective treatment for Perioral Dermatitis. Instead, you can try using a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil or Aveeno to soothe the affected area. To treat Perioral Dermatitis caused by topical steroid cream, your doctor may prescribe a mild topical steroid like hydrocortisone cream for a short period of time. It is important to avoid using any steroid creams without medical supervision, as they can worsen the condition if not used correctly.
