Treatment options for skin atrophy on arms from steroids?

June 23, 2024
Asked By:Bright834458 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I have visible lumps on my arms and am looking for options to help treat them. The skin is thin to the point where it cuts easily. I would like something to help thicken the skin and get rid of the lumps. It’s been about a year of healing.
