Dermadew cream substitute
I have been using dermadew cream for the acne on my face but I am experiencing bowel discomfort and slight itching or burning sensation on my face. Is it because of dermadew cream? Can you suggest me some alternative medicine for the same. I am a 30 year old man.
Hi! Your skin could have become sensitive over a period of time.
Let it settle down.
Next Steps
For a couple of days splash cold water and pat dry. Next use only a mild baby soap for a couple of days. If there is no itching or burning you can start with anti acne preparation like clear gel but leave it on for a short time and rinse off.
Health Tips
Do not itch or break the boils.

Acne vulgaris (pimples) is an active skin disease that needs to be treated with prescription medicines . And prescription medicines are given after a thorough examination by a dermatologist. The cream that you are using is a moisturizer and is used to moisturize the skin. My suggestion is that you visit an allopathic dermatologist . All prescription medicines have to be monitored by the dermatologist to ensure that unnecessary side effects do not happen.
