Acne

[Guest]

Hi,

I suffer from both acne and eczema on my face.My question is will the Sigmacort(Hydrocortisone acetate)prescribed for my eczema aggrevate my acne or help it as ive heard of cortisone helping acne.Also will keeping the face moist with this cream help or not.

Thanks

Cortisone creams and orally can cause acne. While it will temporarily decrease the inflammation, it will ultimately increase the amount of acne. If your face is dry, moisturizer is good.
