I have only a few topicals, whether it's a grooming product or prescription that I can safely use. Lotion's and creams often contain preservatives I am allergic to. Ointments are often safer because they more often don't contain preservatives I react to.
You need to start researching every product you put on your body. Make a list of all active and inactive ingredients and go to the internet and learn what each ingredient is. You will see chemical names that are long and you have no idea what they are. Also don't assume because the ingredient is a natural substance like cinnamon or rubber it's safe.
A good site for this info is the EWG Data Base. It could be what is being prescribed is fueling your old rash or cause new ones.
