Contact dermatitis under eyes
I have contact dermatitis under eyes caused by hydroquinone, tretinoin and mematosone. Can I use an OTC ointment to treat it quicker? Would hydrocortisone work?

Its always better to get it diagnosed with a doctor. Secondly hydrocort is a steroid cream which should be avoided until and unless really required. So its better you have it diagnosed with a doctor then start the treatment

Don't self diagnose and treat yourself like this. It can be risky.
