What Causes Skin Peeling After Using Triamcinolone Acetonide?
i recently got poison ivy reaction on both hands palms very red and fingers swollen. I used an old tube of Triamcinolone Acetonide to treat the poison Ivy, now my skin is peeling extensively. What can I do to stop the peeling and get my skin back to normal

To treat the reaction you need to apply clobetasol propionate cream over the affected areas along with a good quality moistuising cream over your entire hands liberally . You can also take tablet levocetrizine 5 mg once daily. Avoid frequent washing of hands. Dont use harsh chemicals or soaps over your hands. Keep your hands as moisturized as possible.
