6 days agoA contested skin condition triggered by medicines
When 28-year-old Abigail Stein from London was prescribed a topical corticosteroid to treat her eczema, she trusted that her skin condition would start to settle. Instead, it erupted. What had begun as a stubborn patch of hand dermatitis spread aggressively across her body. Physicians prescribed stronger and stronger steroid creams, but things only worsened. Stein has had eczema since she was a child and is used to periods of flare-ups and remission.
