I've got lupus, and discoid lupus. I have the constant rash across the bridge of my nose and on my cheeks, its always there no matter what I've taken or tried, well now I'm getting these ugly dark purple spots about the size of a dime, they look like skin tears, but they're not open. I just moved to a new community, I'm already self conscious about this stupid rash, now this any suggestions?? I'm not on any meds and haven't fallen I don't know what they are, I have 2 on my face and 1 on my arm now. thanks for the input.
Hi, hopeful.
I am sorry to hear. It sounds painful. Have you checked in with your doctor to discuss these new symptoms? Whenever new symptoms present themselves, I find it's wise to consider a check-up. It could be Lupus-related or not, you may not know for sure without a medical opinion. And, you may just find the visit helpful, if you find relief or are provided with some answers. Please keep us posted.
Hugs,
Laurie
I know exactly what u are talking about! I have three on my scalp and some on my legs. I have used aveeno lotion and the spots have faded a little.... Its worth a try and always notify your doc.
