Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Lupus / October 2005topical meds for malar rash?
My face rash is back with a vengeance, although nothing feels particularly wrong with the rest of me. My face feels tight and stings a little when I apply my normal moisturizers and sunblock. Does anybody have a particular topical med to calm the malar rash when it strikes? Thanks, Pell Sorry, in the past 15 yrs I've tried lots of stuff; nothing works because it's metabolical. At least they think it is. In my case the only thing that helped was Prednisone. Have you noticed that it gets worse in the morning after you eat breakfast? I've talked to people that had that same problem. Can't explain it. Candi ---------- >My face rash is back with a vengeance, although nothing feels >particularly wrong with the rest of me.

No, but mine can worsen with stress, lack of sleep, heat, exercise of any kind and sun. It's often worse around dinner time if I don't leave work and go home. A red stripe down the right side tells me I need to go home NOW! Most of the time my face rash is mild to the point of being unnoticeable. That's why it's bothering me now. Quite different and definitely red enough to catch the attention of passersby. Hi Pell. I find that topical corticosteroids work well for me. (eg Diprosone and Betnovate) Good luck :) > Hi Pell.

I asked the following question by email, then realized you probably wouldn't be able to reach me through the Hotmail address. I'll ask again in the group: Are Diprosone and Betnovate over-the-counter or prescription topicals? Thanks, Pell Hi. I've been using SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Gel and it helps alot with that hot. tingly feeling and it makes the color not as noticable. |
