I've been dealing with some intense itching on my inner thighs, and the skin there is really dark. My thighs do rub against each other, which probably doesn't help. I'm also noticing that the area stays quite moist. I'm curious about how I might be able to lighten the skin and stop the itching. Any advice?

I've had exfoliative cheilitis for 12 years where the entire layer of my upper and lower lips peels off, leaving them red and raw. My top lip is also covered in Fordyce spots. I've tried so many treatments tacrolimus, clobetasol, mometasone, calendula ointment, Sebamed lip balm but nothing helps. Even multivitamins didn't make a difference. When I tried leaving my lips alone without peeling, they got even more inflamed. The skin turns white when wet and peels daily. Dermatologists keep recommending creams, but none work. Are there any surgical options since topicals don't seem to do anything?
A proper clinical evaluation is needed to identify the exact issue

I'm really confused and a bit concerned about something that's been happening lately. Almost every night, I wake up with this persistent itching in my feet and the palms of my hands. It's been happening after I take a shower and moisturize. What could be causing this? Could my shower habits or the moisturizer be triggering it somehow? I'm just not sure what's going on. Any ideas?
Itching in the feet and palms of the hands, especially at night, can be due to a condition called eczema. I recommend using a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream on the affected areas before bedtime. Additionally, taking an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg at night can help alleviate the itching. Make sure to continue moisturizing regularly and avoid any potential triggers that may worsen the itching.
