Hi, i have been using betnovate cream on my face for years now. I wash my face before going to sleep every night and apply it on my face. I tried to stop using it but can t cos my skin gets very itchy and red and small zits start appearing on forehead , cheeks and chin if i do not apply it on my face for a day even. I have a combination skin and i started using betnovate cream without any consultation with a doctor. I am 24 years old. Now I have stopped its use from 3 weeks. My skin was itching the first week and red and small zits started appearing and now it has left dark spots. I am on homeopathic treatment my doctor told me to apply cold milk for itchy skin and it worked but what about the dark spots. What should i do? please suggest
Hibernate is a strong steroid - long term use has several hazards, including skin atrophy.  Your skin may end up worse in the end!  You are wise enough to have stopped now. Self-medication is fraught with dangers!  It is wise to see a skin specialist - generally, they may give antihistamine, moisturizing lotions, and if there be a need for steroid, they will advise the least harmful one like simple HY Chat Doctor.  I am not competent to comment on other systems of medicine! Good luck
