It's prescription-only, but one 2.8 ounce tube of triamcinolone acetonide (0.1%) keeps 99% of these ailments under control for years. It's also available as an ointment -- if you suspect your condition originated from today's Winnipesaukee waters.
Ask your doctor for its appropriateness in your case. (It's also only three dollars per tube).
