I'm using Tugain 10 and I've noticed that when I exercise, I end up sweating a lot on my scalp. Is it normal to sweat from the scalp after applying Tugain 10? Also, how long should I stay awake after applying it, and how soon can I put on a helmet?

This is a common side effect of the medication. You can continue to use Tugain 10 despite sweating from the scalp. You should wait for at least 4 hours after applying Tugain 10 before going to bed to ensure the medication is fully absorbed into the scalp. As for using a helmet, it is recommended to wait for at least 2 hours after applying Tugain 10 before wearing a helmet to prevent interference with the absorption of the medication.

View allI've been diagnosed with rosacea about 5 months ago and I've been using lacto calamine lotion. The past few days I started putting coconut oil on at night because my skin gets pretty dry. My skin feels soft and there aren't any flakes, but I still get a few red patches when it's really humid. It's got me feeling pretty down and I'm wondering if I should just stick with what I'm doing. Also, does rosacea ever go away? I feel really depressed over this. What do you think?

I've been dealing with a stubborn fungus infection on my thighs. I've tried several ointments like Quadridrum and Ringguard, but they didn't help much. Fourderm seemed to work for a bit, but then the infection came back. Recently, someone suggested Derobin, but it just gave me allergies and made my skin turn red and painful. I'm really worried about what's going on. Do you have any advice?
It seems like you have been experiencing a recurrent fungal infection on your thighs. Since Fourderm worked well for you initially but the infection recurred, you may need a stronger antifungal medication. I recommend trying a combination antifungal and steroid cream like Lotriderm. Apply a thin layer of Lotriderm cream on the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
