I'm dealing with some pigmentation and scars on my cheeks and around my nose and I've heard glycolic acid creams might help. Could you recommend a cream that could be effective for treating these issues? I'm a bit worried and would love some guidance on what might work best.

Question

I'm dealing with a reddish rash on my cleavage and under my breast. It tends to get worse when I sweat and then becomes really dry and sometimes itchy after a shower. I noticed last time that a zinc-based medicine from my dermatologist helped a bit. It's not really bothering me otherwise, but I'm just not sure what else to do. What do you think it might be, and is there something more I should try?
