Hi, any tips on how to speed up and/or make the healing of topical steroid withdrawal symptoms (i.e. pain and itchy blisters and rash and oozing pus) less miserable?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clarifying: While pain might get worse after stopping steroids, blisters and oozing pus are not signs of steroid withdrawal, but rather of an uncontrolled skin or systemic condition that needs to be addressed properly. Would suggest contacting the team that has been treating your condition with topical steroids as they need to know about your symptoms.
