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 been dealing with a really sticky neck for the last couple of weeks. No matter how often I wash it, the stickiness comes back in just about 10 minutes. I'm sweating a normal amount, and I've never experienced anything like this before. I've tried washing with water and soap, but even right after a shower, my neck feels sticky again within 5 to 10 minutes. Any suggestions on how to get rid of this?

Sticky neck can be frustrating. Possible causes include: - Excessive sweating - Bacterial or fungal infections - Skin conditions like eczema or seborrheic dermatitis - Product buildup Try these remedies: 1. _Antibacterial soap_: Use a mild antibacterial soap to reduce bacteria. 2. _Antifungal powder_: Apply an antifungal powder to reduce fungal growth. 3. _Baby powder or talcum powder_: Absorb moisture and reduce stickiness. 4. _Apple cider vinegar_: Mix with water as a final rinse to balance skin pH. 5. _Tea tree oil_: Mix with water and apply to reduce bacterial and fungal growth.

I'm looking for a minoxidil product at 5% strength that doesn't have alcohol or propylene glycol. The one I'm using right now is in lotion form, but it's causing some really bad itching. Do you have any recommendations for something else I could try?

-You can try a *minoxidil 5% foam* instead of lotion, as its alcohol- and propylene glycol-free, reducing the chances of itching. If irritation persists, consult a dermatologist for alternatives.
