I'm having a lot of trouble with itching and cuts on the skin of my scrotum, even though I've tried using different ointments. It's frustrating because the skin keeps getting dry and the cuts keep coming back. What can I do to finally get rid of this dryness and heal these cuts?

I'm really worried about why my skin stays dirty even after washing it well. It's like I have to almost scrape with something sharp just to get the dirt off. After a bath, it seems to get dirty super fast again. I've even tried washing my face around 45 times a day, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. It's strange because even just after washing, if I rub my hands on my face, I still end up with some dust. What could be going on here?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a buildup of dead skin cells and dirt on your skin. This could be due to a variety of factors such as excessive oil production, environmental factors, or improper skincare routine. I recommend using a gentle exfoliating cleanser to help remove the dead skin cells and dirt more effectively. You can try using a face wash containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, such as Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash, twice a day. Additionally, using a gentle scrub, such as St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub, 2-3 times a week can also help improve the texture of your skin. Make sure to moisturize your skin afterwards to prevent it from becoming too dry. If the issue persists, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
