Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,

I can understand your concern for the spreading red pimples all over your body. I can get that you had been prescribed an antibiotic ream with mupirocin by one doctor and a combination cream by the other doctor. I first and foremost suggest you to not to use any combination creams containing steroids in it. It is totally injustice to use a combination cream as the steroid can harm the skin rather than giving any benefit.
I further suggest you to meet a dermatologist and get the exact skin condition diagnosed. You can continue the antibiotic cream till the time you meet a dermatologist.
All the best.
