I'm dealing with something called tinea incognito and my doctor gave me two creamsLivafin and Onabet. They said to use them twice a day, but I'm confused. Should I be applying both at the same time or just one of them? Could really use some advice here.

You should use both creams as prescribed by your doctor. Apply Livafin cream first, followed by Onabet cream, twice daily. Livafin contains Terbinafine and Onabet contains Sertaconazole, both are antifungal medications that work together to treat tinea incognito effectively.

I've been using Panderm Plus for a couple of years and recently took a break from it. Almost immediately, I started getting pimples. I checked in with a doctor who recommended some tablets. I'm curiouswhat might the side effects be, how can I avoid them, and how long might it take for my skin to clear up?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
