Can Swollen Tongue And Lower Abdominal Pain Be The Side Effects Of Using Tramcinolone Cream On Body?

Hi,



I am a school nurse in an elementary school. i had a teacher approach me this morning stating that she has been mistakingly using tramcinolone cream (0.1%) on her face and body for two months. She is experiencing symptoms such as mild lip and tongue swelling, acne and pain/discomfort in the front, lower portion of her abdomen on both sides (ovarian?) Any recommendations?

Hi.It is unlikely that this cream can cause such problems unless patient is having uncontrolled diabetes.
Please ask her to undergo tests of blood- routine, urea, creatinine, T3-T4 and TSH..
It would wise to see a Doctor , who can clinically examine her and order further investigations.
Of course ask her to stop the ointment.
