Yes those are steroid related side effects. The skin will take some time to heal and return back to normal. For now use a gentle cleanser like cetaphil, a good moisturiser for barrier repair like cebhydra cream 4-5 times in a day, a good sunscreen and tab limcee twice a day for 30 days and levocetrizine for itching. For further treatment consult a dermatologist.

You can do the following to ease the symptoms 1. Prevent dry skin use a humidifier to keep the air in your home or office moist. This can help prevent dry skin before it starts. Sensitive skin moisturizers are also great at keeping your skin supple and preventing plaques from forming. 2. Avoid fragrances most soaps and perfumes have dyes and other chemicals in them that may irritate your skin. They can make you smell great, but they also can inflame psoriasis. 3. Eat healthfully diet may play a role in managing psoriasis. Eliminating red meat and fatty snacks may help reduce flare-ups triggered by such foods. Cold water fish, seeds, nuts, and omega-3 fatty acids are known for their ability to reduce inflammation. 4. Soak your body hot water may be an irritant for your skin. However, a lukewarm bath can soothe the itching and infiltrate scales and plaques. Moisturize immediately after your bath for double benefits. 5.

Hi, please stop using panderm since it contains a steroid. A safer lightening cream for the dark patch with vitamin c or kojic acid can be preferred. Apply antiseptic cream like soframycin on the boils. Use sunscreen during the day. Please visit your local dermatologist if your skin problem persists.

I understand your concern. Urticaria is a very stressful and troublesome issue. However, it can be treated with prolonged injections and medicines. I would recommend you to physically visit a well known pulmonologist doctor, who have access to biologics or anti histamine injections. Good luck.

Yeast and yogurt mask for oily skin oily skin is prone to acne, and this home remedy can reduce excess oil and help clear acne.
