I was given the above named cream for cellulitis, a skin condition where there is
an infection under the skin and causes a major ITCHY rash that[s about the size of the front of my lower leg. It is driving me up the wazoo,l can't sleep at night
I have tried all the products at the natural food store, epsom salts, a paste of baking soda and water, all of the over the counter hydrocortisone creams; you get the picture. I just want to rip my skin off! Anyone know of anything stronger that might help? Thanks. (I have CRPS in both feet and I understand this plays a part in this)
A stronger topical than Triamcinolone?

I also have the cellulitis and the doctor started me on the antibiotic Cephalexin for 10 days. Mine is in my foot and very painful and itching also, but I have been scared to rub anything on it. Hope you find relief soon.
