A member asked:
Had (may still have) stomach ulcers, should i use kenalog (triamcinolone) spray (prescribed) or over counter 1% hydrocortisone for leg rashes?

Topical steroids OK: Use either steroid for your rash. Topical creams will not cause or flare up ulcers. Best of luck.

Either fine: The use of topical steroid creams/sprays that are really not systemically absorbed enough to cause any issues with reflux or ulcers are safe to use.
