Please stop using betnovate cream as it contains strong steroids which will cause serious side effects. Steroid induced pimples, photosensitivity that is sun sensitivity, rosacea that is red face, atrophy that is skin thinning, stretch marks, pigmentation, dryness, severe itching and hair growth on the face etc to name a few side effects. Reports of skin cancer are also there. Please don't use any such Steroid containing fairness creams. You will require treatment to slowly put you off this cream by using some substitute as the skin becomes addicted to the steroid.

I'm seeing these itchy red bumps that look like pimples on my forearms and ears. They first appeared two days ago on my hands and ears but have now spread to my forearms. They're not on my biceps or shoulders, which are usually covered by my t-shirt. Could this be related to the weather change? I was driving in the sun two days ago during the daytime and started noticing these patches afterward. What do you think?
Causes* 1. *Sun Allergy (Polymorphic Light Eruption)*: Exposure to sunlight, especially during peak hours, can trigger an allergic reaction, leading to itchy red bumps. 2. *Phototoxicity*: Certain medications or skincare products can react with sunlight, causing a phototoxic reaction, which may present with similar symptoms. 3. *Contact Dermatitis*: Exposure to an allergen or irritant, such as soap, detergent, or plant sap, can cause a skin reaction, especially on exposed areas like forearms and ears. 4. *Heat Rash (Miliaria)*: Prolonged exposure to heat and sunlight can cause heat rash, characterized by small, itchy bumps. *Next Steps* 1. *Seek shade and avoid further sun exposure*: Until the symptoms resolve, limit your time in the sun, especially during peak hours. 2. *Apply cool compresses*: To reduce itching and inflammation, apply a cool, wet compress to the affected areas. 3. *Use topical creams or ointments*: Over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream or calamine lotion can help alleviate itching and inflammation.

I'm really worried because I've been using MELAMET cream for a long time, but now I'm seeing some side effects on my face. I tried to stop using it, but after about 56 days, my skin got really dark and dry. I want to stop using this cream without it affecting my skin badly, but I'm not sure how to do it. Can you please help me figure out what to do?
It's important to discontinue the use of Melamet cream if you are experiencing side effects such as skin darkening and dryness. To help your skin recover, you can switch to a milder and safer alternative like Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser for cleansing and Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream for hydration. Additionally, you can use a sunscreen like Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen SPF 50 to protect your skin from further damage. Remember to apply the moisturizer at least twice a day and the sunscreen every morning before going out.
