I've been struggling with extremely dry and irritated skin on my hands and feet for months. My doctor prescribed Prumyx Cream 140gm, which is supposed to hydrate and protect the skin. I'm a bit hesitant because of the potential side effects, especially the rare but serious ones. Has anyone else used this cream? I'd love to hear about your experiences, both good and bad. How long did it take to see results? Did you experience any side effects? Any tips for applying it or combining it with other treatments would be much appreciated. I'm really hoping this works, but I want to be prepared for any outcomes.

I've been struggling with very dry, rough, and scaly skin for a while now. My dermatologist recommended Ammonium Lac 12% Lotion, which contains lactic acid, to help soften and moisturize my skin. The description says it helps the skin hold onto water and gently removes dead skin cells. Has anyone else used this lotion? I want to know if it works well and if it's worth the effort. Also, I've read that it can cause burning or stinging sensations. Should I be worried if it tingly when I apply it? Finally, can anyone share their experience with possible side effects, especially rashes? I want to be prepared and know what to look out for. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

I've been struggling with really dry and scaly skin, especially on my elbows and knees. My dermatologist recommended Ammonium Lac 12% Lotion 225gm, saying it would help my skin attract and hold onto moisture better, and gently exfoliate the dry patches. However, I'm a bit concerned about the side effects, especially that minor rash. I've seen it described as rare, but I'd love to hear from anyone else who's used this and what their experiences were like. Did you notice any improvements after a few weeks? Or did you experience more-any of the serious side effects? Is it worth the risk? I don't have any medical allergies, but I'm still a bit nervous. I already look forward to hearing from everyone. Thanks in advance!
