Stretch mark under thigh
I have some skin rashes issue so I used dermotriad plus cream from 6 months. Now I realized that it has some side effects it causes red/ purple stretch mark under thigh and look like my skin is thinner under thigh area. I consult dermologist they suggested elastoderm cream. Want to know is it safe to use elastoderm cream. Is there any side effects of cream. Is there anything I will try (other option also). How much time it will take to recover stretch mark.

This stretch marks have come due to the dermotriad cream. Stop all this self treatment. You may be suffering from tinea cruris which is fungal infection of the inner thighs and buttocks area. It can be treated by taking four to six weeks of anti fungal treatment which includes tablets along with creams. Do not use soap over that area. Mistreatment with over the counter Steroid containing creams like dermotriad, panderm, quadriderm, hh zole, candid b etc lead to repeated case of recurrence and also side effects due to application. Do not use steroid containing combination creams. Please call me or contact me using online consult option with photos for detailed prescription. Do not delay treatment as it may spread further on your body and also to other people living in the household.
