I get eczema a lot on my face, especially around my lips. When I get it, it s bumpy, inflamed, and weeping but the last time I went to the doctor for this (two years ago) I was prescribed Triamcinolone Acetonide cream (0.1%). I mention this because the cream helps me with my current problem. Now I m having issues with my right ring finger. The skin is red, dry and cracked and will bleed if I don t put the Tri cream on it with a band-aid sealing it off. The cream, when used on my face, usually makes the eczema disappear in two days if I catch it right away and apply it twice a day (in the morning and before I go to bed). I ve used the cream on my finger because I thought it was another type of eczema, but the cream doesn t heal it completely. It heals the damage and makes it so the worst of it is gone and there s no more completely cracked and bleeding skin, but if I stop applying it it becomes dry and cracked again. I used the cream in tandem with Cetaphil (also recommended by my doctor for the eczema) for nearly two weeks, twice a day, and it looked as though it had healed completely, but after a day or two the problem came back with the same intensity as before. Is this eczema? Should I keep trying the Tri cream and Cetaphil? Do I need a higher dosage of the cream (0.5% instead of 0.1%)?
