Skin Thinning
Skin Thinning
New to the group and wondering if anyone has experienced real thinning of the skin from years of steroid based creams. I'm actually at the stage when carrying out general house chores, taking clothes of, if any amount of pressure is placed on my lower arms I get instant blood bruising. My fear is I'll have a right sore arm one of these days. Pic for info this was me cleaning my kitchen and brushed off the bin coming back up ☹ currently waiting on derm assessment.

Aww thanks for the reply Susan. It's a bloody nightmare when one bruise clears up another appears. 😒 it's like having 100 year old skin. Not sure what the derm doctor will suggest probably a live with it reply 🤔
