Laurie is correct this should start to quiet things down but if they don't improve just be sure and talk with your doc- please feel better soon

betamethasone cream is a steroid cream used for skin conditions so it is probably what your doctor prescribed. It helps quiet the inflamation.
Hope this helps,
Laurie
