Welcome to the forum AdeMot, although I'm sorry to hear what's happened since you started using Tolak.
Most medications should come with instructions that include guidance on what to do if you are experiencing certain side effects but if you no longer have access to them, do try getting in touch with your GP or speaking to a pharmacist when you can as they will be best placed to advise. If neither of these options are available to you, you could try calling the NHS on 111 for further support and advice.
I hope some of our members will offer their thoughts and advice to you as well but in the meantime I'm sending you all my support and hope that you're able to get some answers soon.
I have just looked at the patient information leaflet for Tolak online
It says
"Do not apply Tolak on open wounds or damaged skin.
It is likely that the area of the skin treated will become red, probably followed by inflammation/swelling, possibly some discomfort, skin erosion and eventually, healing. This is the expected normal response to treatment and it shows that Tolak is working. Talk to your doctor if your skin becomes much worse, you experience pain or if you are worried. Your doctor may prescribe you another cream to relieve any discomfort."
It looks like you should stop using this when the skin is broken and contact your GP for advice or an alternative prepaation.
Please stay in contact and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
