I have been using Ovestin for 7 weeks now. I used it every night for 3 1/2 weeks and then every other night. Finally I feel a little more comfortable.
However on one side I have a small bright red patch of skin. It looks like a v small split. When I was using Ovestin nightly it got a bit smaller for a couple of days but then seemed to split again when I reduced the application (also possibly because I wasn't using moisturisers then and the skin got dry and tight).
Does anyone know how long things like this take to heal? Should I apply a bit of Ovestin to it every night to help the process or would that be too much as I have already done 3 1/2 weeks nightly followed by 3 1/2 alternate nights? Or do I just keep on with the routine and be patient!
I am worried because it isn't going away and I will have to be referred if it hasn't gone by New Year.
