New to this site. Just diagnosed with LC. I am wondering if anyone else has any skin issues and if these could be related?
I have extremely sensitive, fair skin, so the slightest thing can be an irritant. However, I often break out in what I assume are hives. Sometimes, there is only one, other times a cluster. They typically appear on my face (above eyebrows, cheeks, sides of eyes) or my throat and chest. Usually, they last for a day and go away. Other times They have lasted a few days and will then appear as raised red spots that tend to flake then disappear after 3-4 days. I also have some spots on my upper legs that look very similar to hidradenitis suppurativa, in the research I have done. They also come and go.
Has anyone else struggled with any rash issues? Do you believe it is related? What has helped to alleviate these symptoms?
