I've been dealing with this fungal infection on my neck for over four months, and it's really frustrating. I've been using Onabet for it, but instead of getting better, it seems to be getting worse. I'm starting to worry. Do you know any stronger medicine that could actually clear this up?

I'm seeing these itchy red bumps that look like pimples on my forearms and ears. They first appeared two days ago on my hands and ears but have now spread to my forearms. They're not on my biceps or shoulders, which are usually covered by my t-shirt. Could this be related to the weather change? I was driving in the sun two days ago during the daytime and started noticing these patches afterward. What do you think?

Causes* 1. *Sun Allergy (Polymorphic Light Eruption)*: Exposure to sunlight, especially during peak hours, can trigger an allergic reaction, leading to itchy red bumps. 2. *Phototoxicity*: Certain medications or skincare products can react with sunlight, causing a phototoxic reaction, which may present with similar symptoms. 3. *Contact Dermatitis*: Exposure to an allergen or irritant, such as soap, detergent, or plant sap, can cause a skin reaction, especially on exposed areas like forearms and ears. 4. *Heat Rash (Miliaria)*: Prolonged exposure to heat and sunlight can cause heat rash, characterized by small, itchy bumps. *Next Steps* 1. *Seek shade and avoid further sun exposure*: Until the symptoms resolve, limit your time in the sun, especially during peak hours. 2. *Apply cool compresses*: To reduce itching and inflammation, apply a cool, wet compress to the affected areas. 3. *Use topical creams or ointments*: Over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream or calamine lotion can help alleviate itching and inflammation.

I've been using Lobate GM cream for a while because it really gave me the fair skin I wanted, so I kept using it for over a year. But I got kind of dependent on it, needing to use it daily. When I stopped, my skin got red and rough. A doctor helped me fix it in a couple of months, but now my skin has gotten too dark and lost its glow. I'm wondering if it's okay to start using Lobate GM cream again to get my skin back to being fair?

Yes, Continue same medications.
