Here’s a clear overview of the possible side effects of GA cream, focusing on itching and rashes.

GA cream, which typically contains glycolic acid, can sometimes cause skin reactions like itching and rashes.

• Itching and Rashes:

  • These symptoms are usually signs of skin irritation or a mild allergic reaction to the cream or its ingredients.
  • While uncommon, some people may experience dryness, irritation, or itching after applying GA cream.

• What to do if you notice these symptoms:

  • Stop using the cream right away if you develop itching or a rash.
  • Gently wash the affected area with water to remove any remaining product.
  • Try not to scratch, as this can make irritation worse or lead to infection.
  • If the symptoms do not improve or get worse, it’s important to consult a dermatologist (skin specialist doctor) for further advice.

• Prevention tips:

  • Always do a patch test on a small area of skin before using the cream more widely.
  • Follow the usage instructions carefully and avoid applying too much.
  • Let your doctor know if you have a history of allergies or sensitive skin.

Mild irritation can happen with some topical treatments, but if you have ongoing or severe reactions, it’s best to have a dermatologist review your symptoms to ensure your skin stays healthy and safe.
