[QUOTE="GlucoseHugs, post: 528504, member: 75661"] Hi just seen this post after I posted a similiar question last year and thought I was the only person on here with this condition. I have mine on my right shin and have done for the past 6 or 7 years. Mine started as a small red mark, like a mosquito bite and now covers a large area on my shin. It took several years for mine to be diagnosed. I tried steroid creams which didnt have any effect and seem to spend most of the time covering it with cover creams but as it has caused a large dint in my shin, I am very self conscious about this. I dont know if anyone has considered a Skin graft?? that was one option a dermotologist gave me. Not sure if I fancy that procedure I just know that people comment on it when seen (Lack of tact) and makes me feel even more self conscious. I spent most of my days in jeans and trousers but sometimes, i want to feel like a woman and wear dresses without people pointing out the NLD. Anyone else have this issue?? [/QUOTE]
