My doctor gave cortisone cream ( fucicort ) to use on red marks and he said to use it once a day till they go. IS it safe to use it for 2 months?

Dr. Rola Al Dhaybi Dermatology
You should use it till the lesions heal, give it a period of 1 month to a maximum of 2 months and if they don't heal then consult a dermatologist to check the cause of your problem.

Fusicort cream can improve red marks for one to two months without atrophy of the skin. If the marks are on an exposed skin (parts of your skin that aren't covered with clothers) you will have to use a sunscreen cream. If it doesn't disappear, consult your Doctor.
