how to get rid of Facial Discoloration caused by topical steroid?

I had a bad case of eczema on my face and neck recently and was prescribed to use Betnovate, Bactin and Elocom twice daily for 2 weeks.. slowly after the 2 weeks i had noticed that my face and neck has white patches (my skin is naturally light brown) there is so much discoloration on my face that with AND without makeup you can see the patches, and it doesn’t cover with makeup.. is there any creams, prescription cremes, home remedies anything possible to get rid of this discoloration.. i use sun screen when i go out, i live in a very hot and humid environment.

and on side-note: i asked the dermatologist that had prescribed me the topical steroids about what to do with the aftermath of the white patches, the dermatologist prescribed me a cream called E-45 to stimulate melanocyte production and bring back my natural color… this cream did not work.. please help … thank you

    Hand eczema, does it get worse before it gets better?

    Hello, I have had really bad hand eczema to the point where I can’t use my hands regularly. I went to see a school nurse and she prescribed me with a topical steroid cream called Triamcinolone. The first night I used the cream my hand had gotten a lot worse the next morning, and it had spread to places it wasn’t before. Is this normal? Have you had this problem? Don’t know what to do… moisturizers aren’t doing anything to help.

    How can you control eczema around your eyes?

    Every winter I get eczema around my eyes and today it is especially red and irritated. I know that is a sensitive area and normal creams and topical steroids that you would ordinarily use are not good to use near the eyes. Are there any over-the-counter creams or gels I could find to help with this? It is bothersome and unattractive. Thanks!
