How To Cure Spot And Depigmentation On The Site Of Cortisone Injection?

I had cortisone injections in my wrist due to tendonitis problem that arose after my pregnancy. Now I have noticed a very light spot at the site. How long will this depigmentation occur and will color return to this area or is there something I can use to help pigmentation return.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that after the prick some time such depolarization of skin is common where the skin is the only layer, this could be due to the trauma to the micro vascular bed, and this would come around later or sooner, no need to worry about this, have a nice day.
