Lupus Rash

[Turquoise1999]

Hi everyone

Hope everyone is well

I have been experiencing on and off lupus rash/butterfly rash on my face for years now. But for the past few years, it has seemed to get worse and does not get better.

i been constantly been given steroid creams to help but I refuse to use it any more.

Gas anyone tried anything different to help the rash or has anyone tried a natural route to helping it.

Hi

For me it doesn’t go away as such but the products I use can make it worse so I use cetaphil cleanser for dry sensitive skin and also their moisturiser too which I find helps me.

I don’t know if you wear make up but IT Cosmetics CC cream is the best for covering it up while not irritating it as it has included skin care products in it.

I was put on Plaquenil in April of 2023 for Lupus symptoms, constant pain (mostly in my legs), extreme fatigue, and overall ill feeling. Within 2 months of taking Plaquenil, the pain and fatigue had subsided, not completely but has greatly improved over the last year and a half, and my health and immune system have also improved. I went from being sick all the time to very rarely sick. It has been a godsend for me. I wouldn't advise taking the medicine on an empty stomach, it will make you sick and nauseous all day long.

Hi

My rash is only around when I have a flair . The best that works for me is clarins sensitive skin repair . It’s not cheap by any means but the bottle lasts for ages . It definitely makes the rash fade and takes all the redness away ! Good Luck 🤞

Thanks for the reply.

My rash has been there most of the time, but gets worse when I have a flair.

For sure I will try the Clairins products.

Anything that would help

Thanks
