Guest guest Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 Thank you, that was very helpful. I had something like that on my back a few years ago and they treated it as if it work ring worm. Man I'm learning quite a bit from this group. Dawn Marie -- Re: Lupus Lesions Mine normally start out looking almost like a pimple. These occur on my back, arms, chest and neck. I have only had a couple on my face. Then they will become round red patches that as they get larger they will clear in the center and become round rings of raised red tissue. They will itch and burn at times. Sometimes they will come and go very quickly, in a matter of days. Some of the ones on my back and arms have lasted for up to 6-8 weeks. If you will go to Lupus.com you should be able to do a search and find the pictures that you are looking for. If you can't find them there let me know and I will see if I can locate a site for you.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 Yes, thanks for the information. I have had those types of rashes on my ankles and other areas off and on for the last 11 years, and now they have a name. It's unbelievable how some doctors don't have a clue when they see the symptoms staring them in the face. My ankles were so bad, they were oozing nasty looking brown fluid. It took a long time for it to go away, and it's back again now. Not nearly as bad thanks to putting Elidel on it. Debbie Mc -- Re: Lupus Lesions Mine normally start out looking almost like a pimple.
