Hi There im really hoping somebody will be able to help me. A few years ago i devloped what looked like circle shaped pathes of dry skin on my upper arms that looked like scabs but the circles where not complete but more like a broken circles it that makes sense. Sometimes they would be itchy but most times not. I would exfoliate my body at least once a week and especially target my upper arms so get that dry scabby skin off. Once the skin came off i would be left with white patches of skin where the scabs used to be. I have been on holiday in the sun but those spots would not tan and being of Indian origin this would make the white spots seem even whiter and are incredibly visible.
I was given hydrocortisine cream but was told to only use it when the dry scab patches appear. I am only low in Vitamin B12 so not sure if that is something to do with it as well. Is there any type of cream / ointment / treatment i can use / have to help reduce these white sopts and the apperance of them.
I would really appreciate your help.
Kind Regards,
FP
