Little bro has excema, now i see his nose getting greenish, what is this and should i get worried?

Question

This question is for my little brother michael. He has excema for about a few years now. He is asian, 19, 5 foot 5 inches and weighs 120. Well...he told me that he's been taking meds for excema but probably topical only. His nose is a slightly greenish color. He will go see a doctor when he fly's back to school tomorrow. Should i worry about this slighty greenish color?

Answer 1

Does he put the topical medication on his nose? If he does, read the package insert that comes with the medication to see if it does actually affect the skin coloration. If you cannot find anything, try calling a local pharmacy to ask about the med or call the manufacture number listed in the package insert. Other than that, if he does not experience any fever or vomiting, you can wait til he sees the doctor tomorrow.

Answer 2

i also have excema but have never had that kind of side effect from my meds. i would not worry too much if he is going to see a doctor.
