Cribbage scoring

In other words, is a 4 of kind worth 12 points only, or can those cards be used in various combos to score 48 points (. For example, if 4 of a kind is worth 12 points, can I score the 4 of kind PLUS the two 3 of a kind combinations that can be made as a subset of the 4 of a kind PLUS all the pairs that can be made as a subset of the 4 of a kind OR is the listed 4 of a kind point value accounting for the multiple pair combos that can be made and that’s all. My question is if cards can truly be used multiple times to make as many scoring combos as possible or if the scoring combos listed already account for those multiple scoring combos. One point is scored for each card in the run. Cards may be used multiple times to make separate scoring combinations shown below.” Then it goes on to list point values for various combos. The boards count score for each player, up to a maximum of 121, hence each line of peg-holes has a maximum of 120 holes in total. The run in pegging is three (or more) cards that form a numerical run. My cribbage rules say when scoring the hand, “Players make as many combinations as possible from the four cards in their hand as well as the starter card.
