It sounds like you might be experiencing a skin condition or infection, which could be causing the cuts to worsen. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, which may include topical treatments or antibiotics depending on the cause.

I've noticed I have a lot of thin vertical lines on my nails, and there's always one or two thick, noticeable ones on each fingernail. Its kind of worrying me because I have had tests done, like thyroid, x-ray, sugar, blood and urine tests, and everything has come back normal. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?

Can I use Elocon cream to make my lips a rose color? A friend of mine suggested it, but I'm really curious if it's actually safe to use like this. Are there any side effects I should be worried about? And if it is safe, how exactly should I apply it?

Elocon cream should not be used to change the color of your lips, as it can cause serious side effects, especially with prolonged use. Its best to focus on natural, safe methods to enhance lip color or consult a dermatologist for advice on how to achieve the desired results safely.
