Guest guest Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Jackie, have you been out in the sun more lately, that will thin the skin too. I have only gotten what you described about twice, I thought it was a small bruise, it turned green and went away, so I didn't think to much about it. That would be my only guess my skin does weird things in the sun! not to mention make me feel sick. have a blessed day, Marla Hi I have a question hopefully someone can answer. When I was is the Nursing Home with NS I kept getting these bruise like things on my arms and hands. They would bleed and become skin tears. I know it was from the prednisone I was taking. Know I am down to 5 mg a day. They were all but gone. Now for some reason I am getting them again. Not as bad as before but it is not a pretty site. I have been using skin bleach to try and remove the discolor and feel it was working to some extent. Now I feel like I have to start all over. Does anyone else get these and do you have any suggestions as how to either care for them or keep them away. I would really appreciate any help I could get. I really hate having old peoples arms at my young age. LOL (58 last Saturday) So if there is anyone that can shed some light on the problem PLEASE help.
