I'm sorry for asking, but I'm really worried. My baby girl seems much darker than me and my husband, and it's been bothering us. We both have fair skin, but she's five months old now, and her complexion seems to be getting darker. We've tried several oils, but nothing seems to work. Can you suggest anything to help improve her skin color?

I'm dealing with a cut mark on my left hand that happened back in January 2016. I didn't get any treatment for it at that time. Now, the wound mark has become thick, and I'm experiencing pain and itching there. Even a light touch is painful. Could you advise me on what to do?
