I have facial eczema and two of the newer treatments I tried (Eucrisa and Protopic) made me feel like I lit my head on fire for about 10 minutes after applying. It's expected for those products and my derm told me it's nothing to worry about. And they work like a miracle, which is the important part.
Same same but Protopic is what my derm prescribed.
