What are the potential dermatological side effects of diclofenac, including skin rashes or photosensitivity and how can these be managed?
Diclofenac may cause skin rashes, itching, or photosensitivity. Minimize sunlight exposure and use sunscreen to manage these effects.
Another potential side effect of diclofenac is dermatitis. Patients should keep the affected area clean and may use hypoallergenic creams as prescribed.
Diclofenac can lead to skin reactions like eczema or hives. Avoid wearing irritating fabrics and apply soothing lotions to alleviate symptoms.
