Question

Eczema treatment

Asked for Female, 30 Years

I've been diagnosed with eczema and given a cream with steroids and also oral sedatives to help manage the itching. Since I started the steroid cream, MFsone, the rashes and itching have been suppressed and I'm feeling better now. But if I stop this will the itching and rashes reoccur? What should be done? How long should i use this cream. It's been one week since I've been using MFsone
