A member asked:
My doctor prescribed me triamcinolone cream for severe case of contact dermatitis. he said use all over body except face. is this safe?

Sounds appropriate: Typically, triamcinolone cream is safe to use on all parts of the body, other than the face, under the arms and the genital region. You may use it up to twice daily, and i would not use more than 2 weeks continuously without discussing with your doctor.
