What Is The Cure For The Dark Purple Blotches Caused Due To Poison Oak?
Hi, I got poison oak all over my face legs and arms and went to the doctor who prescribed me triamcinalone. I have been using it for 5 days and the rash on my face is gone, and my arms are almost all the way healed, but on my legs I used to have nasty blisters all over in blotches, but the swelling has went down a lot but I am worried because I see dark purple blotches where the swelling once was. Please Help
You seem to have developed pigmented scars xter the areas where you gab developed allergic reactions previously. You should avoid application of any creams0or oil over the area. Apply a kojic acid based cream twice over the scars. It will decrease the pigmentation slowly. Avoid rubbing the area. Take a diet rich in fresh fruits.
Hope it helps
