Hello,

Thanks for the query.

SCLE lesions does not remain permanent,

At the same time it cannot be totally cured.

The lesions keep coming and going.

This is the characteristic feature of SCLE.

Treatment is symptomatic.

Dose of steroids is increased or decreased according to severity of disease.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
