A member asked:

My daughter got some new cream off the doctor for her exzema its called hydromol ointment and two days ago she came out in a massive rash on her stomache and back n yesterday she had dihorreah and its mushy pea green im not sure what this could be iv stop

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Rash and diarheaa: Hydromol acts as a moisterizer to maintain moisture on the skin surface by acting as a barrier. It has no active ingredient to heal the eczema but increased moisture in the skin is required for the skin to heal. She could have a rash from one of the ingredients in the ointment or she just may need a stronger treatment. I don't think the diarrhea is related to the cream.
