I've been really struggling with my lips being dark and chapped lately. Are there any creams or treatments you could recommend to help lighten them?

I've been using Melacare for about a month to try and lighten some burn scars. They seemed to lighten up a bit, but there's still quite a bit of darkness left. I stopped using the cream a week ago, and now it seems like the marks have gotten darker and more noticeable. I'm just a bit worried about why this is happening and if I should start using the cream again or try something else?

How often should you wash your hair?

Usually twice a week but to be very precise it depends on hair type. If washing frequently you have to make sure you use a mild shampoo and dilute it with water before using.

I'm really struggling with jock itch and it's been a nightmare for the past 23 years. I've seen countless doctors, and they've all told me to use creams like Panderm, Dermikem, or to take Fluconazole tablets. They seem to work while I'm using them, but as soon as I stop, the problem comes roaring back. The skin on my inner thighs gets super thin and crazy itchy. These creams help temporarily, but the symptoms always come back. On top of this, I've gained some weight, and my face looks puffy and swollen. I'm also noticing stretch marks on my shoulders and knees, and I just feel tired and weak all the time. I'm really in a tough spot here. What can I do to finally get rid of this? Its becoming unbearable.
