Q: Skin Conditions

I am a 16 year old, and about a month and a half ago the skin above my lip started to dry out. After about a week or so, it got red, and another 2 weeks later, it caused a very dark line, right above my lip. I used bleach in the hope that it will go away, but it didn't work. My current condition is a very dark strip above my lip. Can you diagnose what it is? My dad says it is an allergy.

It may be eczema, sebhorria or another type of skin disease. Maybe you should post in a different forum besides "adoption." they might be able to help you better!
