It has been at least 15 years...but after 3 years of low carbs and intermittent fasting, long healing ulcers and wounds, on my arms, legs, nails bed etc are finally flattening out...
I have no idea...they just started appearing as little bumps that grew into ulcers that never quite heal...no matter what ointment/cream or snake oil is applied...
It would heal a little...then the itch comes and the vicious cycle continues...on the arms, thighs, and face...
This is the last of 2 remaining bumps on my arms...so low carb and IF is pretty good for inflammation control...
Welcome relief to you. I suffered for years with cysts in armpits and 'other' places, haven't had one since going low carb. Shouldn't have posted that, I bet I get one now.

In the cholesterol lowering diet I was put on, a long standing cyst on my back grew larger, very itchy, and burst (that was fun).
These days I still find myself surprised at how soft and supple my skin has become again - after two years of low carb.
