I've noticed that my upper lip is quite dark, and the skin at the corners of my lips seem darker too. Plus, my lips are constantly dry and chapped no matter what time of year it is. Is there any way to permanently fix these issues?

Yes, these problems can be effectively managed and potentially cured with a combination of topical treatments, lifestyle changes, and professional interventions, such as using lip balms with SPF, exfoliating with sugar or salt scrubs, applying turmeric or lemon juice to reduce hyperpigmentation, and consulting a dermatologist for chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser treatments to address persistent issues.

I've been dealing with a case of Acute Paronychia and it seems like it's getting better. The swelling's gone down, and I managed to squeeze out a lot of pus and discharge from the abscess, which I think cleared it out. But I'm not entirely sure, 'cause some odd things are leaving me questioning. Like, I peeled off some dry skin around the swelling area and noticed there's still a bit of a bump. Should I be worried, or is this normal during recovery?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection , candid cream for local application, once daily for 2 weeks is advised, also tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days is advised, if any allergic reactions dermat opinion is advised.
