I'm dealing with a situation where I had corns on my toes because of my footwear, and I used salactin paint to try and fix it. While the corns have settled down a bit, I accidentally put some of the salactin on my normal skin, and now it's more damaged than the corns were. I've been trying to rub off the affected skin but haven't had any luck, and it's been almost a month now. What should I do?

I'm noticing that my skin color changes a lot throughout the day. Sometimes it looks darker, other times it's lighter. And it's not just the colormy skin goes from being really hydrated and glowing to dull and dehydrated, all within the same day. I'm a bit worried and curious about why this is happening. Could there be an underlying cause for these fast and frequent changes?
