Using Betnovate GM long-term can cause steroid withdrawal symptoms like dryness, redness, and bumps. Stop using it completely, and start a gentle skincare routine with a hydrating moisturizer and sunscreen. Visit a dermatologist for treatment to repair the skin barrier and address any steroid-induced damage.
