I've been having some issues with cuts in my skin where my thighs meet the groin area. I've tried using powder to keep it dry, and it helps a little, but the cuts are still there. What else can I do to heal these cuts, and why aren't they going away completely? Is there something specific I should be concerned about?

View allI've been dealing with perioral hyperpigmentation on my cheeks, and it turns out my sister has the same issue. My doctor suggested I use Kozilite H cream with hydroquinone 2%. Do you think it's safe for my face, and how long should I stick with this treatment? Also, I've had really dark circles since I was a kid, so it's kind of a heredity thing. I don't want to put any hydroquinone cream around my eyes. Could you recommend a good, non-irritating under-eye cream to help reduce them?
1. Hydroquinone 2% is generally safe for short-term use (3-6 months) on the face, but prolonged use can lead to ochronosis, skin thinning, or rebound hyperpigmentation; use Kozilite-H cream as directed by your doctor, and monitor for any adverse effects. 2. For dark circles, consider a non-irritating, hydroquinone-free under-eye cream containing ingredients like caffeine, peptides, vitamin K, or niacinamide; some good options include Kama Ayurveda Under Eye Cream, La Roche-Posay Pigmentclar Eye Cream, or Olay Eyes Deep Hydrating Eye Gel.

I'm a 28-year-old woman, 5 feet tall and weighing 48 kg. Lately, I've been feeling like insects are crawling all over my body, and it's worse when I'm working in water. I have no known allergies or other major health issues, and I don't smoke or drink. I've been on homeopathy medicine, but it's not helping. Plus, I've been experiencing pain in my joints. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
