Woman, 23, left in searing pain and housebound for weeks after her face suddenly started to swell
A young woman has revealed how she was unable to leave home for a month after suffering "unbearable" withdrawal symptoms from her eczema cream.
She said: “I’ve had eczema since I was a baby and I’ve gone through phases over the years where it’s cleared off and then reappeared in patches on my arms and on the back of my knees, but it was never anything major, but over the last two years it started to get worse. Noticing that she was experiencing redness, itchiness and a burning sensation from her sore skin, Morgan discovered that her symptoms lined up with topical steroid withdrawal.
“I was very lucky because I work from home and my managers were very understanding, so I was really privileged in that sense. I think if I wasn’t working from home or if work hadn’t been so understanding, then I probably would have had to quit due to how much pain I was in.”She said: “I tried doing a no moisture treatment, where you don’t use moisturiser, and you limit the amount of water you intake or how often you shower, but for me my biggest relief was getting in the bath.
