Hello. Thank you for posting.

Triamcinolone Acetonide is used to treat a variety of skin conditions (eczema, dermatitis, allergies, rash). Triamcinolone reduces the swelling, itching, and redness that can occur in these types of conditions. This medication is a medium- to strong-potency corticosteroid.  How long have you been using it?  It might need more to work. If you still feel it's not helping after a reasonable time, a call or a follow-up visit with your doctor is advised
