Theres this small light-white coloured patch on my face& it feels dry/rough.idk what it is! can i use elomet cream for it?is this cream safe/suitable?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Don't use a steriod cream like elomet without a prescription, it can be a fungal infection and steroid creams won't be the treatment, better see your doctor/dermatologist, best wishes
