What is Hydrocortisone used for?

Hydrocortisone cream is primarily used for reducing inflammation and itching caused by skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis. It works by suppressing the immune response in the skin, which helps to alleviate symptoms. This medication is often recommended for short-term use to manage flare-ups and provide relief from discomfort.
