Besa Gordon Interviews Dr. Sidney Nelson about Eczema and Topical Steroid Withdrawl (TSW)

Dr. Sidney Nelson details what Topical Steroid Withdrawal is.

Besa Gordon, the host of Back2Besa, recently sat down with Dr. Sidney Nelson, a medical expert, to discuss eczema and topical steroid withdrawal (TSW). This interview was especially personal for Besa, as she has been dealing with eczema since she was a baby and TSW for the past several months.

In the interview, Dr. Nelson explains that eczema is a chronic skin condition that causes dry, itchy, and inflamed skin. TSW, on the other hand, is a condition that can occur when people who have used topical corticosteroids for a long time suddenly stop using them. Symptoms of TSW can include redness, burning, itching, and skin thinning.

Besa shared her personal experience with TSW, describing the emotional and physical toll it has taken on her. Dr. Nelson offered valuable insights into the condition and provided advice on managing symptoms. He also stressed the importance of seeking professional medical guidance when considering discontinuing steroid creams.
