so two weeks ago i put differin on my neck because I was getting a pimple there. The next day I saw a tiny rash forming and bought some benadryl itch stopping cream and the rash grew to cover my whole neck. i kept putting on the benadryl cream but it burns every time i put it on. then it started to go away. i wasnt sure whether or not the differin caused the rash or the duac I also use. so i put differin on again (i know, not smart) on my neck and for the last week I have had a huge rash on my neck. it had bled a few times. what should I do? it really burns and itches every morning when I wake up. my whole neck is red and splotchy.
HELP! Rash on my neck! Burning!?

Since its a rash or a effect of alergic reaction go to a local durg store and buy benedrayl.
It will clear up in as soon as 3 days.
Use vaseline instead. Vaseline never irritates its very gently and applies alot of moisture.
Sorry, cutie – about 40% of the general population who have used topical diphenhydramine (Benadryl cream/ointment topical) actually develop a worse rash than what they had when they started. Since your skin is probably hyper-irritated by now, you may want to try letting your skin heal without anything (including any ointment/cream of any kind) on it for about 24 hours. Keep the affected area clean with mild soap and water and pat it dry. If there aren’t any open areas (areas that look like they may bleed easily), and it looks like the redness is fading, then let it heal on its own. If it still looks red/raw and still burns (yes, cutie, even “some”), then hit your doctor’s office. Your neck, face, and scalp area major vascular areas and infection can spread rapidly if not properly cared for. Good luck!!
During your first 4 weeks of using Differin, your skin may be dry, red, or scaly. You may also feel some burning or stinging. Call your doctor if these side effects are severe.
Less serious side effects are more likely to occur, such as mild burning, warmth, stinging, tingling, itching, redness, or irritation.
Do not use Differin on sunburned, windburned, dry, chapped, irritated, or broken skin. Also avoid using this medication in wounds or on areas of eczema. Wait until these conditions have healed before using Differin.
Do not use skin products that contain alpha hydroxy or glycolic acid while you are also using Differin.
