Statis Dermatitis
Hi ,
I have statis dermatitis... So my friend suggested me two creams Flutivate & Cetaphil Pro 10% urea lotion... I have even been advised to use moisturex Soft Cream...
I have been using this moisturex cream for a year but the problem is it burns a little when I wash my leg after going to washroom..even I felt the hydration was not good enough.
So I started using Cetaphil lotion ..now since it has urea it started to exfoliate my affected area...every time I take a shower I see dead skins on the floor.. but the hydration was top -notch
Now my problem is if I stop using both of them my skin gets dry and starts to itch...and when I use it it exfoliates please suggest which lotion should I use??
What's the use Flutivate cream..does it calm itching in statis dermatitis

Talk to experienced dermatologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Stasis dermatitis is a diagnosis which needs to reviewed. The cause must be treated first because dermatitis is secondary
You have mentioned 2 products....see moisturex cream has urea and lactic acid and is to be used on soles not lower leg or ankle which might be causing your burning sensation
Moisturex soft cream on the other hand is OK with white soft and light liquid paraffin but there is acoorecr way to apply it
Cetaphil prourea lotion comes with either 4% urea or 10 % urea however...4% urea containing acts only as moisturiser and doesnot have exfloiating action
Next Steps
Donot worry...take a dermatology consult l, get a definitive diagnosis and personalised treatment plan.
Health Tips
Tip - Apply your moisturiser on slightly wet skin..preferably after taking bath within 5 minutes.
Good luck.
