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.

View allI've got this boil or phoda at the start of my hip line that just won't heal. Every day, pus and a little bit of blood come out of it. I've tried using different antiseptic creams and even took amoxicillin tablets, but nothing seems to be working. I also have diabetes, but it's under control. What could be causing this issue, and how can I get it to heal?

I'm really worried about my mom. She had submucous fibrosis a few years back and got it treated, but now it seems to be happening again with her skin. Do you think homeopathy could help with this condition? How long might it take for the treatment to be effective this time? It's just so frustrating that this problem keeps coming back.
Oral submucous fibrosis is a chronic condition and usually there is no permanent cure for this condition. Treatment is aimed at improving mouth opening and identifying causes and avoiding them so that it does not worsen. She needs to be evaluated by oral surgeon for further treatment

I'm 28 and suddenly dealing with acne, which is totally new to me. My dermatologist put me on Isotretinoin 20 mg, but now I'm worried. They warned me about not getting pregnant during treatment and mentioned something about contraception, but I'm more concerned about what happens after. Is it safe to try for a baby 6 months later? Could there be any impact on my fertility or sexual health? Would really appreciate some clarity on this.
