I've been having some issues after using Onabet cream on my private area. My skin feels really dry and hard now. I've tried using Boro cream to add some moisture, but I'm really worried about how uncomfortable it still is. Could you please give me some advice on what to do next?

I'm really worried about what's called Schamberg disease and Im trying to figure out if theres a way to treat it at home. What kind of home treatments are out there? Can it actually be managed without seeing a doctor, or is professional help necessary?
Schamberg disease, also known as progressive pigmented purpuric dermatosis, is a rare skin condition characterized by the appearance of reddish-brown spots or patches on the skin. Treatment Options: While there is no cure for Schamberg disease, various treatments can help manage its symptoms. Here are some conventional treatment options: 1. Topical corticosteroids: Over-the-counter (OTC) or prescription creams, ointments, or lotions can help reduce inflammation and itching. 2. Phototherapy: Exposure to specific wavelengths of light, such as narrowband ultraviolet B (UVB) phototherapy, can help reduce symptoms. 3. Immunosuppressive medications: In severe cases, medications like pentoxifylline or colchicine may be prescribed to suppress the immune system's response. Home Treatment and Self-Care: While medical treatments are essential, there are some home remedies and self-care measures that can help alleviate symptoms: 1. Moisturize: Keeping the skin hydrated can help reduce itching and inflammation. Use gentle, fragrance-free moisturizers. 2. Avoid irritants: Steer clear of harsh soaps, detergents, or other products that can irritate the skin. 3. Protect from the sun: Use sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and protective clothing to prevent further skin damage. 4. Cool compresses: Applying cool, wet compresses to the affected areas can help reduce itching and inflammation. 5. Elevate affected areas: If the affected areas are on your legs or arms, elevate them to reduce swelling.
