How Can Itchy Stretch Marks On The Abdomen Be Treated?
I m 36 weeks pregnant and having lot of itchy stretchmarks on my tummy. I applied soframycin skin cream for since 5 days. I read somewhere that no antibiotic medication whether orally or topically be used in pregnancy. Now I m worried that will soframycin cream harm my baby by penetrating in my skin. Please suggest. I have stopped using it.
