Oh my goodness.. I had this for 2 1/2 years. The absolute worst pain of my life. It's so, SO good to see a dermatologist acknowledging this bc the majority of skin doctors DON'T. It's so frustrating to be gaslit by dermatologists when you're suffering so much.

Thank you for raising awareness and acknowledging us.

Thank you so much for acknowledging TSW and raising awareness! I developed TSW after 30 years of steroid use for eczema, and was homebound for almost a year. It was the worst thing I have ever been through, and at the time no one could figure out what was wrong with me. I am now 2 years steroid free and have my life back!

@@darkflower9090 She stopped using any kind of steroid or non-steroid drug for eczema to get them out of her system. She went to an allergist for tests to see what she's allergic to so she could avoid those potential triggers. She joined Facebook support groups for people with eczema and TSW. Right now she's seeing an acupuncturist, who she feels is helping. She uses ointments like Vaseline rather than creams or lotions, avoids any products with fragrance or essential oils, and takes an antihistamine like Benadryl for itching. She is careful about what she eats. It is a slow process with a lot of trial and error to see what helps and what doesn't.

@rubymars5493

OMG you are the best Dr. Idriss! Can’t believe you are talking about this topic! I’ve never had eczema and I personally went through TSW because of a mistreatment of an allergic reaction I had postpartum. I only used mild TS on and off on my face for 2 months and I had TSW after, only on my face. One of worst things I’ve ever been through that’s for sure. I had postpartum depression during that time and one of the side effects of TSW is depression. So it worsened my ppd during that time. Even now 1 y 4 months TSW I’m still experiencing mini flares but it’s so much better than before.

Yep this happened to me… thanks to a pcp who prescribed topical steroids for a “rash” on my face. Getting off the steroid was a horrible experience and took months of antibiotics and years to recover. I now have rosacea. Please please please always go to a dermatologist for skin concerns. Had I done so, I wouldn’t have gone through that horrible experience.

@rubymars5493

Omg I think we went through the EXACT same thing! Same symptoms! I’ve never had eczema before and got proscribed TS by a derm for an allergic reaction on my face. I put it on and off for 2 months and stopped for good. I recovered the worst phase myself now I’m 1 y 4 months TSW, I have mild to moderate rosacea like flares sometimes on my face. Some people in the TSW community said it’s just a TSW flare but I don’t know…..

I had TSW. It was so bad that it lasted 3-4 years and the reason why it went away is because I was one of the test trial for the dupixnt or people call it dupilumab. I was taking the risk and danger of injecting myself with a trial medicine so that my TSW could be cured. Let me tell you that it worked.

@gracehawkins4259

Topical steroid withdrawal can be caused by OTC topical steroids too. I used it on my face for a long period of time and am suffering the consequences, two years post using them. Also a lot of us in the United States can’t afford dupixent unless we have good insurance. I really wish there was something that could help everyone going through this.

I've had this condition. JAK inhibitors are coming out on market and worked better for me than Dupilumab. Cibinqo is the drug I used that works better than Dupilumab. I was on a clinical trial for both in a double blind study, and dupixent worked for me for about 6-8 weeks before reverting back to TSW. It is a biologic so your body can get used to it or fight it. Also 30% of patients have allergic conjunctivitis that take dupilumab which I did. Cibinqo was just FDA approved and an oral pill once a day vs biweekly injections from Dupilumab and less side effects with greater efficacy. Research and take with your doctor's recommendation.

I have TSW, I am part of a lot of TSW support groups. The problem is that when you stop taking dupixent, you will also have withdrawals and experience all the symptoms of TSW again. It’s a Band-Aid for the problem, not a solution. As someone who has suffered with TSW for nearly three years now, I can understand the desperation. The medical and pharmaceutical companies are not being held responsible for the damage that these over the counter creams are causing.

Doesn't just have to be topical..if you misuse steriod cream and then take oral steriod, this can worsen your condition. This goes for eye, ear, and inhalers with CORTICOSTERIODS. I was 1 year in to tsw recovering 90% i got and ear infection. The drops had antibiotics and dexamethasone in them..48 hours later, my face was extremely swollen (my neck disappeared) and peeling. I had zero chin. It had given me red sleeves which I never had with my first go round with tsw. Dr. Rapport has said that if you use topical wrong or for too long first... the corticosteroids will set you back. For me its been far worse than the first go round.

I thankfully recovered from TSW (used topical steroids for 15+ years from my PCP and was stopped as soon as a derm saw my skin about 10 years ago now) but have permanently red skin and noticeable skin atrophy. In case this helps anyone, skin patch testing can help with avoiding your triggers of eczema flares and help your skin barrier to recover (why did no one suggest this to me until my thirties?!). This kept my skin clear until the crazy flare that ended with me taking dupixent two years ago. There are support groups on facebook for both TSW and for dupixent, and they are both generous with information. I wish I'd found those groups before taking dupixent so I'd made a more informed decision about possible side effects (my doctor brushed those off and it's certainly true than many people don't have any, but I tend to get rare side effects from any medication I take, which I was very up front about). I wanted to make an informed decision about what I was getting into, and even called the folks at dupixent and asked for results of their clinical trials, but the drug was just too new then. Unfortunately dupixent was not for me -- it cleared my eczema but also resulted in hair loss, a strange fungal rash on my face, an eye gland disease, and uncovering of underlying joint hypermobility -- and I found the facebook group after I took the medication. This is not to say dupixent doesn't work wonders for some, and technically it did for me too, but if you're already feeling horrible and used to dealing with one issue, swapping it for something else can also be really difficult emotionally.

@Mcbuggler

This can also happen with topical immunosuppressants like tacrolimus. A lot of dermatologists are prescribing topical immunosuppressants now instead of topical steroids. This is not the answer. Just like topical steroids, your body will become dependent on the immunosuppressant, it will become less effective, and you most likely will withdrawal from it just like a topical steroid. I don't really know much about Dupixent, but I would be weary of being on any drug for an indefinite amount of time. I'm not a doctor, but I have had TSW from tacrolimus, so I'm skeptical of any drug now. Just do your research before committing to being on a medication for the rest of your life. I think dependency, declining effectiveness, and withdrawal can come from just about any drug.

I worry about this for my young child with eczema. The derm dismissed TSW as a concern, but we use it on his eczema patches every few days. Is this something I should be more concerned about? Eczema causes him to suffer, too, so it’s a hard spot to be in.

@MagicalNature3

All I know is that I used OTC hydrocortisone on my son one week on and one week off as prescribed by his doctor and he ended up with TSW and I think he was showing signs a few months into doing that but we didn't realize until almost a year into using steroids and by that point we were using stronger stuff because the hydrocortisone stopped working.

Not everyone will develop TSW but I can tell you the warning signs I wish I had listened to. Every time we used the steroid cream the rash would come back and it started coming back worse then before and spreading to new areas after treatment, while this was happening the steroids were becoming less and less effective at clearing him, stepping up steroid doses or using them more often or for longer seem to work for the first couple treatment cycles but the same thing would happen and the steroids would be less and less effective the more we used it, eventually they stopped working and didn't clear him hardly at all. Then we stopped using them and he a bright red, full body rash and had TSW symptoms like unable to regulate body temperature and nerve pain. Also his growth had slowed down and then stopped while we were still using the steroids and he was dropping many percentiles which was another warning signs of TSW.

@MagicalNature3

1y↑1

No it doesn't only affect the areas where you used steroids it can spread to your entire body. Withdrawal symptoms can last for a year or more. My son when through TSW at 18 months old and now three years later he is completely clear except for a few small ezcema patches. From what I can see being in a support group for TSW the most popular treatments are no moisture treatment, traditional Chinese medicine, homeopathy, sometimes immune suppressants, or the drug she talked about here. Then some people heal with nothing but moisturizers and time or other various treatments like dead sea salt baths, special diets, or light therapy.

@trainerchappo1233

The why is known. Topical steroids have a binding affinity of up to 600x that of cortisol and the dose is instant on a very small area of the body, say 3mg, as opposed to 1mg (of the 600x weaker cortisol) released systemically over 24hrs. The result is that glucocorticoid receptors are reduced by as much as 90% and blood vessels dilate uncontrollably upon ceasing the steroids. The endogenous production of the much weaker and small amount of cortisol cannot dampen any inflammatory response in the area that topical steroids have been applied, nor can they constrict the blood vessels. All cells have glucocorticoid receptors and 20% of genes are influenced by the receptor.

Topical steroids should be banned for skin conditions in my opinion as 20% of children now have "eczema" and it is only increasing since steroids hit the market in the 60's and became much stronger in the 2000's. The strongest that should ever have been made and applied should have been 1:1 binding affinity with cortisol. Medical industry is in shambles in the current year.
