I've been dealing with this rough skin inside my mouth and inner lips, and it's starting to worry me. I'm making sure to stay well hydrated and take care of my oral hygiene, but this issue just won't go away. It's affecting both the inside of my cheeks and my lips. Can you offer any advice on what might be causing this and how to get rid of it?

Peeling of oral mucosa can be caused due to irritants. These may include overly acidic or spicy foods, harsh toothpastes or smokingdrinking. You can modify your diet to include softer ingredients and try changing your toothpaste. If the problem still persists, you should consult a physician.

I've been dealing with these annoying acne-like bumps on my hips and the back of my thighs. They don't bother me all the time, but when they do, they can be really itchy and painful. After some Googling, I think it might be folliculitis. I'm already on Isotretinoin for the acne on my face, and my lipid and liver function tests are normal. Do you have any suggestions for an ointment or something that could help with this?

Candid cream for local application for 7 days, tab flucanozole 1 tablet once a week for 2 weeks is advised for your fungal infection.And for follicullitis u can take tablet Augmentin duo 625 mg thrice daily for 5 days lastly for acne Clinsol gel is advised to the patient for 3 weeks, if any side-effects kindly consult dermatologist.
