I'm dealing with tinea cruris and I've been using Fixtral and Lulifin. After a few days, I've noticed my skin turning white and starting to peel off. Is this a normal reaction? Should I be concerned?

Moisturize: Use a gentle, hypoallergenic moisturizer to keep the affected skin hydrated and reduce the peeling. Observe the Area: If the peeling is mild and the area seems to be improving, it may just be part of the healing process. However, if you notice increased redness, blisters, or severe irritation, you may need to stop the treatment and see a healthcare professional. Follow-up: Its a good idea to check back with your doctor if the peeling is persistent or bothersome, or if the condition doesnt seem to be improving after a week or two.
