Use Non Soap Sorbolene Cream. Severe Body Rash After Using Highly Perfumed Soap. Remedy?
I began using a highly perfumed soap on my body with ingredients of Tallowate, Palm Kernelate, Cocoate, Parfum, chloride, titanium dioxide, sodium hydroxide, etidronic acid, hydroxycitronellal, linalol, hexyl cinnamic aldehyde, geraniol, citronellol, lyral for three weeks and previously. I had always used a non soap Sorbolene cream with 10% glycerine. I suspect that may have caused my body rash and over the past three weeks have been trying various suggestions recommended by Doctor and chemist and their has been only a little improvement (especially the itchiness and redness)??

Hi,
thanks for writing here.
It seems you are having severe contact dermatitis to products you are using.
Avoid all soap,perfumes etc.Wash only with luke warm water.
Avoid sun exposure and woolen clothes.
You need to take oral steroids like prednisolone and anti allergic tablets like allegra.
It will be better to consult a dermatologist.
Hope this will help you.Take care.
