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've got this nose piercing I did last month, and now there's this annoying bump with some redness around it that's just not going away. I'm really worried because my wedding is in February, and I want it to heal before then. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?

-For the bump and redness, it's important to keep the piercing clean with saline solution and avoid touching it with dirty hands. If it persists or worsens, consider consulting your piercer or a dermatologist to ensure proper healing before your marriage
