Question

How can I get rid of the scars?

Thank you for your help and support you are making a big difference in the life of HIV-positive people.

Can you tell me, please, how can I get rid of pigmentation of rash from my arms and torso? It was a side effect from Atripla that I received two mounths ago. The rash is gone for two mounths now, but I have scars on my torso and arms. How can I get rid of them?

Thanks.

Answer

This needs to be seen by a dermatologist or your GP. There are many peeling creams that can help with getting rid of scars, but the right one (for your skin) needs to be prescribed to you.

Avoid self-prescription, as this may worsen the situation, rather than improve it.
