UPDATE
After using the canasten hc cream ( see my other post ) i went to the doctors today to tell him that the canasten hc worked great for the first four days then did nothing for the following 10 days.
So today ( Jan.3rd ) he prescribed me Betnovate RD cream ( the RD meaning " Ready Diluted ). The leaflet with the cream states that the cream is Betamethasone valerate 0.025% w/w and from what I've read on this list it is the weakest form of this cream. The doctor told me to apply it in a small amount, VERY thinly to the " ring " ONLY and only once every OTHER day !!!.
According to the leaflet it seems to be potent stuff ?. Well, I only applied it a few hours ago for the first time so I'll keep everyone posted on what happens.
