"Sometimes I use too many tissues and rub my nose raw. Some mornings I go to the sink or shower and use my hand in running water. The underside of my nose is sometimes raw-feeling. A tiny, tiny smear on the underside. I can barely smell it. One dose lasts a good 6 hours of regular 1%. I would recommend it for friction burns or something like that, for sure!"

For Anal Itching "I've found Hydrocortisone to be ABSOLUTELY useless for anal itching. Though not perfect, a topical antibiotic and anesthetic (Lidocaine, etc.) was much better."
