I am guessing that the doc decided it might be eczema. How long have you been treating it?

Well if I was you I would go back to docs if you get any creams from the chemists prescribed by the docter and you have seen no improvement after 5 to 7 days then it's the wrong cream belive I must have had every cream going go back to docters good luck keep safe

He suggested me to use it for 20 days and asked me come back so am still left out with some more amount, LOL ..

Able to advise? What must be used to cure ...!

in reply toCyrus_reddy

If your doc said use it for 20 days and it is now 25 days, you can go back to the doctor as he said.

Well, I would do that, but I thought I could get come info here 🤷

If the cream has not worked in the period specified by your doc you should go back. We are not doctors. You may now need a different treatment.

did the doctor mention lichen sclerosis? LS is something that causes white patches and needs to be treated before it gets worse.Make sure you keep going to the doctor until it is cured

I don't think it's "lichen sclerosis", even saying "eczema*.

Am really not sure what exactly it is, picture was attached to it so please do check and let me know.

I'm no expert so can't say for sure,try googling for images of LS and see what you think

I did search and it's not somthing what I have, it's just kind of pealed skin, no pian, no itchy, no burning, but it's became sensitive, even the doctor is not sure about it 🙄

Hi Man, I would go back to your doctor they probably should give you a referral to see a specialist. It could be LS and needs to be assessed properly.

Not what you're looking for?
