I'm suffering from itching due to insect bites, can I use betnovate-gm on the areas itching for a fast relieve?
Betnovate-gm is a topical medication that contains betamethasone (a corticosteroid), gentamicin (an antibiotic), and miconazole (an antifungal). It is typically prescribed to treat certain skin conditions like eczema, dermatitis, and fungal infections. However, it's important to note that this medication should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as indiscriminate use or misuse of corticosteroids can lead to adverse effects. Insect bites can cause different reactions in different individuals, and some bites may require specific treatments. Using betnovate-gm without proper medical advice may not be suitable for your situation and could potentially lead to complications or delay proper treatment if the underlying cause of the itching is not addressed.

Good, you know this is not a matter for open platform. For skin infection go for blood igg, ige, igm. If any of these r positive, can be controlled not cured. Tab meftal forte three times a day after food for three to five for fever montek lc one at night for two weeks. Lacticalamine lotion three part+ betnovate n one part mix in a bowl apply locally after bath below neck upto toe. For two weeks. Probably you will be fine.

I am facing itching some rash and black spots in my lower body from waist to private area and anus area, so I would like to know if I can have a online consultation regarding this matter, or I should visit a clinic only. I am using absorb powder and betnovate cream for itching and rash problems.

You can opt for either of online or in clinic consultation. However its important to stop using over the counter drugs like betnovate, because if its an infection, its likely to complicate the problem and also lead to skin damage if used for long periods.

I had used betnovate for a long time (some 7-8 years) for white spots on my face. They would go away only with that. Later, I was advised to stop using it so I slowly stopped using it. It was fine earlier when I would apply some moisturizer on my face but now my skin gets irritated and pimples and rash esp when it is exposed to sun, my skin gets drier than usual. I have grown facial hair too. And my white spots are back too. And only applying betnovate-n helps in soothing all the symptoms. I want to avoid using betnovate-n altogether. I am also suffering from urticaria (from 5-6 years), now I come to think it could be because of betnovate. What should I do? Please help, doctor.

Hello lybrate-user. So sorry to hear you had to experience the side effects of bentonovate c. This is a very dangerous medicine to use if not done under supervision. It's a very potent steroid and the side effects are long lasting and take time to heal. Be assured, it will get better with proper treatment. Consult a dermatologist for proper examination and treatment at the earliest. Best wishes.

I had stomach infection last month. Had problems of cramps, stomach ache and constipation. Consulted a local md doctor and he gave me medicines. It was fine. But from last 5-7 days I am experiencing burning inside my stomach. It remains for sometime and them goes off. The burning seems to be on the inner part of skin of stomach. Its not very high burning sensation, but I can feel it. It goes off automatically. I also have burning sensation on the tip of my penis. This also remains for sometime and then goes automatically. Kindly let me know why this is happening and what I should do.

Do this 1. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 2. Don't overeat 3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. U can eat whatever your mother or grandparent eat in bfast. I mean to say whatever is your traditional food. If punjabi eat paratha, if belongs to south then take idli/ dosa etc. 4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, any fresh n seasonal fruit, a cup of curd/milk etc 5. Finish your dinner at least 2 hours before going to sleep. 6. Maintain active life style7. Avoid fast foods, spicy n fried foods, carbonated beverages 8. Take a lot of green vegetables n fruit. It contains a lot of fiber which will help reduce tendency for constipation 9. Drink lot of water. 10. Everyday preferably sleep on same time 11. Take half cup of cold milk when you feel acidity, it will help. Curd is good for u. 12. If its very severe then elevate your bed raising the head of your bed six to eight inches can help gravity keep gastric acid down in your stomach. This is for long term results but for now to bring your digestive system back on track you need to take medicines. For that I need more details, you can consult me.

Avoid fabric softeners, bleaches, or harsh laundry detergents. Wash your workout clothes, underwear, socks, and towels after each use. Keep your affected area, inner thighs, and buttocks clean and dry, especially after you exercise and shower. After showering or bathing, dry the irritated affected area by gently patting it with a towel. Be sure to dry your skin thoroughly. Mix two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in two cups of warm water. Wash the infected area with this solution and allow it to dry on its own. Another option is to apply a mixture of equal parts of white vinegar and coconut oil on the affected skin. Like hydrogen peroxide, rubbing alcohol can help kill off the fungus that's on the surface level of the skin.

Hii, please donot use betnovate c on your pimples. It contains betamethasone cream which is a steroid. It will lead to permanent damage - skin thinning, redness, more and big pimples, infections, hairgrowth on your face when used unsupervised/ for wrong indications. Please consult a dermatologist for your acne. There are various reasons and it is very much curable. Donot use any over the counter products. Donot self medicate as it may lead to permanent damage to your face.
