I've been dealing with jock itch for 3 to 4 months and have been applying CandidB cream, but it's not going away completely and keeps coming back. I'm starting to get really frustrated. What could be causing it to keep reoccurring, and is there something else I should try to finally get rid of it?

I'm dealing with lichen planus pigmentosus and have been for about two years now. Its still pretty active because I keep noticing new pigmentation, especially on my hands. I've got it on my face, neck, and arms too. I tried phototherapy, but it just made things darker, so I stopped that. I've been using Pynormax Tx Depiwhite on my face and neck, and Hydroquinone 5% solution on my hands. I'm also taking Xamic 500mg daily. How long can I keep using all these without worrying about side effects? And with the condition still active, would Glycopeel be a good option for my face and neck?

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent

I've been using HH Lite cream at night, and it's really helped clear up my acne quite a bit. But Ive noticed my face tends to stay red a lot now. Also, whenever I have a night out with alcohol, I seem to break out with acne the next day. I tried taking an LCZ tablet for what I think might be an allergy, and it seems to help, but only to a certain extent. I'm curious about whether there are any side effects from this mix of treatments. Is there an alternative to HH Lite that might not cause redness or react with alcohol?

HH Lite cream and LCZ tablet usage may have side effects: HH Lite Cream: 1. Redness (as you've experienced) 2. Dryness 3. Itching 4. Burning sensation LCZ Tablet: 1. Drowsiness 2. Dizziness 3. Stomach upset 4. Allergic reactions Alcohol consumption can exacerbate acne due to: 1. Dehydration 2. Inflammation 3. Hormonal imbalances Substitutes for HH Lite cream that may minimize redness: 1. Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream 2. Neutrogena Hydrating Facial Moisturizer 3. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Ultra Fluid To address alcohol-related acne: 1. Stay hydrated 2. Use a gentle cleanser 3. Apply a soothing moisturizer 4. Consider a probiotic supplement Consult a dermatologist to discuss your specific concerns and develop a personalized skincare plan.
