I'm experiencing the normal skin reactions to my aldara treatment (i.e. itching, scabbing, sores etc.). Is there something, oils or creams, that I can put on my skin to alleviate some of the discomfort?

Hi Jayne,
Thanks for your question. The side effects you are experiencing are a normal reaction to the medication, and indicate that it is working. You may find some helpful information about Aldara at this page. If you still have questions or concerns about the skin reactions, I would suggest talking to your doctor.
