[KEVING]

Can anyone name a scalp steroid probably topical that the doctor could prescribe, to get rid of this itch all over? Tried everything.


Many thanks

Sounds the one ive tried I used one bottle already for a week, it helped the problem a little bit but still the itch.

Any others?

How did you apply how many times?? How long did it take too get rid off?

I was told at the time for the first week morning and night as i had inflammation which was bad.Then every other day and now im on twice a week.The itching and pain stopped within the first week but my scalp still hasnt cleared up its getting better but ive still got eczema and seb derm mainly on the sides and back now but its getting there.I apply it by pouring some on my scalp and rubbing it in.

I was just applying it at night, cause its not cosmetically possible in the morning, how did you do it?

I just poured on the lotion slight rub and let it dry. I didnt rub too much cause i feel ill lose more hair.

Think its harder when you have long hair? How did you get round it? Have you got short hair and it doesn't make your hair greasy looking??

I have shortish hair so it wasnt too bad for me.I was surprised i thought it would make my hair greasy looking but it dries fine and my hair looks ok afterwards.
