I've got this green spot on my right arm that's been there for like 4 years now. When I squeeze it, pus comes out, and honestly, it smells pretty bad. I'm not in any pain, but it's just really unpleasant. Do you have any advice on what I should do about it?

I've been dealing with a really red and irritated rash along my mustache line, and it's super dry and itchy. Recently, I also noticed a lump on the right side of my jaw, and I can't figure out why it's there. Plus, my acne seems to be getting worse. I've been using moisturizer and washing my face with 10% benzoyl peroxide, but I've avoided using it in the rashy area for months. I first noticed the dryness and flakiness around the start of the year. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

I've been using hair removal cream and now I'm dealing with some irritation and itching around my vagina. I think it might be a side effect from the cream. Has anyone else experienced this? Since then, I've switched to waxing. What can I do to soothe the itching, and is waxing a safer option for sensitive skin in that area? Would love some advice!
