you could try a non- cortisone/steroid eczema cream, i know BabyGanics has an all natural one that is safe to use even on infants. they sell it at Bed Bath&Beyond/buybuyBaby

Yes I think its because the steroid it says its safe to use for a couple of days in small amount but I have that thing all over my body but I just reasked the lady at the counter handeling the perscriptions she said it was safe because my baby was already developed and its only for a couple of days but still makes me wander

Call ur doc office if they prescribed it then it is probably safe...just call and let them know what it says.

My doctor just prescribed it to me for psoriasis on my elbows.. she told me nothing about it being unsafe??? And it is the same exact cream you mentioned.. i believe there is a tiny amount of steroid in the ointment.. is that why i wonder??
