I've been dealing with these petechiae on my skin for about two years now. I'm not exactly sure if they come and go, but I do have a lot of them, like around 10 from my elbow to my wrist. It's been a bit of a concern for me, and I'm curious about what might be causing this. Should I be worried?

I've been using this topical lulifin 1 cream and some oral capsules that my doctor prescribed for a fungal issue in my groin area. Its only been two days, but my skin turned all milky white and it's starting to peel with tiny blisters, plus there's this burning sensation. Is this a normal reaction? I should probably mention that I've used an over-the-counter cream before and ended up with thin skin and stretch marks. Could that have something to do with what's happening now, or is this something else?

The symptoms you're experiencing, such as milky white skin, peeling, small blisters, and burning sensation, are not normal and may indicate an allergic reaction or sensitivity to the lulifin 1 cream or oral antifungal medication, so stop using the medication and consult your doctor immediately.

I'm really worried because I have super sensitive, acne-prone skin and I just started using ACNESTAR soap since I have pimples almost everywhere on my body. I've also been applying pure aloe vera and leaving it on overnight, plus I began drinking Safi from yesterday. But last night, my skin was really itchy. Could this itchiness be from the soap, or maybe it's from combining the soap, Safi, and aloe vera all at once? I'm not sure what to do. Can you give me some advice, please?

ACNESTAR soap contains Salicylic Acid which can sometimes cause skin irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin. Safi is an herbal blood purifier and can sometimes cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Using multiple products together can also sometimes lead to skin irritation. I would recommend stopping the ACNESTAR soap for now and see if the itching improves. You can continue using the aloe vera gel before sleeping as it is generally soothing for the skin. As for Safi, you can also stop it temporarily to see if the itching subsides.

Is there a different brand I can use instead of Dipsalic lotion? Also, are betamethasone and clobetasol basically the same thing when they're used as a lotion on the scalp with salicylic acid? Just trying to figure out if there's a suitable alternative or if they work differently.
