A member asked:
A doctor said i had eczema however i know i have dermatographia. so he prescribed me triamcinolone acetonide ointment i'm not sure if i should take it?

Sure: Triamcinolone works well for eczema. Just use it on the involved areas only and as directed. Both dermatographia and eczema are both very common. The treatment for the eczema will not change the dermatographia, good or bad.
