Hello, my name is Patty. After sun exposure I have developed skin
leasions on my arm and shoulders. Not all at once, they keep coming.
Is there a site where I can see photos of lupus lesions ? I hope you
don't mind me coming here. Patty

Hi Patty, welcome but sorry you have to post here too.
the lesions Andy gave you are good pics.
If you are having lesions, please see a dermatologist and get some treatment before they get so bad
for you too.
I have some of them, rashes on an off from sun. I do have head lesions and they come and go. Not
fun and some hurt. Treatment helps relieve some of them
for the skin on my arms and back, I use bethamethazone from a dermatologist. It also comes in cream
and liquid for the head. I used to use the liquid but found Olux again from a dermatologist.
So only a doc can tell you what to use and how to use it. Please see on to get them under control,
wear long sleeves and above all, USE SUNBLOCK for UVA /UVB protection, Preferably over 45 or more.
Myself I use Vanicream 60 or the new neutrogenia sheer 70 is good also
let us know and good luck
