Steroid cream Hydrocortisone Val 0.2% Cream 15gm for eczema and psoriasis- any personal experience?
I recently started using Hydrocortisone Val 0.2% Cream to manage my eczema, and I'm curious if anyone else has tried it for eczema or psoriasis. How effective has it been for you? Have you experienced any of the side effects, especially the severe ones mentioned in the packaging? Also, I'm wondering how long it typically takes to see improvements. Any tips or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

I had a similar reaction to the previous person, but it was my kid who we had put it on. My kid has been diagnosed with eczema and we thought this would be a good way to help. It turns out, Hydrocortisone Val 0.2% Cream was too strong and she had allergic reactions. This was a tough lesson for us to learn.
I've used this cream for a few months now, and it's been a lifesaver for my psoriasis. No serious side effects, just some minor burning at first. It took about a week to notice a difference, but it's definitely helped with the itching and redness.
I've been using it for my eczema flare-ups for years. It works well, but I always make sure to use it sparingly and only when needed. I've noticed some thinning of the skin on my elbows, so I'm trying to cut back.
I've only used it for a few days, and I've already noticed some burning and stinging when I apply it. Are these side effects supposed to go away, or is this normal?
I was prescribed this for my eczema, but I'm nervous about the potential side effects. Has anyone had any issues with high blood sugar or signs of a weak adrenal gland?
Does anyone know if it's safe to use on the face? I have some redness and itching around my eyes, and I'm not sure if this is the right cream to use.
