Question

I'm dealing with exfoliative cheilitis for 10 years now, and it's really tough. My lips peel every day, both top and bottom, in this really weird cycle. It leaves them super red and inflamed. I've tried steroid creams and other medications, but honestly, nothing seems to help. Is there something I'm missing or some treatment that could actually work?

Question

2 days ago, I accidentally touched the hot silencer of my bike with the lower part of my leg just above my feet. I quickly did a cold compress and have been using Silverex Ionic on it since. Now, the skin has turned dark and dry, and I'm noticing a lot of blisters that keep breaking. Most of the time a water-like substance is coming out of them. What medications should I take? I'm also attaching some pictures from when the accident happened and what it looks like now. Any advice would be appreciated.

Question

I'm really concerned about my fiance's dark knuckles on her hands and feet. The doctor recommended she takes Vitamin B12, Vitamin E, and Restretra HD tablets for a month. I'm curious about what could be causing these dark knuckles. Also, I'm wondering if Restretra will truly help with this issue. Could you provide some insight into this?
