Bodyhygiene/moisture: I hope you do not have like diabetes that have to have controlled. There are bacteria on the body and looks like you have something lowering the immunity of your skin. I would suggest to try antiseptic soap bath at least daily with moisturizer that would reduce chances of cracks that may allow bacteria infection to be initiated.
