HELP!

So as you know I was in an accident which left my skin with burns from the airbag..well the doctor I went to yesterday prescribed a cream..and guess what now my skin breaks out with an allergic reaction to the cream and on top of that..makeup doesn't help..you can still see bumps..I need a good dermo in the west islip area..my wedding is tomorrow

Go back to the Dr who gave your the Rx... at least call them and let them know.

You should call the dr who prescribed the cream and let them know. You can also call your PCP and ask them to refer you to a derm who accepts your insurance.

I'm sure your make-up artist will be able to cover it I would call the derm that prescribed it!

I'm not so sure..you can see the bumps even under makeup

did u stop using the cream?

if u didnt already...call the dr that gave it to you...maybe they can tell u how to reduce the reaction and make it go away.

hopefully its gone by tomorrow...sometimes the reactions dont last that long.

just dont stress!

ok bad news..My doctor tried but there are no dermatologists in the area that will take my insurance..and I would have to pay $125 out of my pocket...which I'm not doing..i can't afford it..do you think my makeup artist can make pimple-like bumps less noticeable?

---

yes definitely. I broke out right before the wedding and didnt think they could be covered but they were.

What about the dermatologist who gave you the prescription in the first place?

is there anyone in LI period she can find for you, there has to be somebody.

Also, really not sure if you can do this but what about a cortizone shot that they inject to your face? ive done this before and works great, in 24 hours it will go down, this will bring down any bumps you have from the breakout. But i dont know if you can do it with the fact that you have scars and not sure if it will effect it. Call you doctor back and ask.
