Be on oral steroids 3 1/2 years started on 40mg daily down to 1mg daily this month, next month 1mg alternate days

Had sensitive skin before this, effect of steroids added to this not good . Use moisturiser every day so no dryness main problem is bruising slightest knock take weeks to go not to bad in winter trousers and long sleeves . Anybody found something to help with this going to be out and about more this year need to get strength back
