SKIN THING :(\
does anybody know anything of possible the cure of erythema dyschromicum perstans?
my friend has that skindisease and its been 2 years. i really feel bad for her she said that there is no cure for it or at least not that she knows of... it hurts me that she just has to wait for it to go away by itself andi wanna help her find the cure for it because i feel that she has given up..
she told me that she doesnt research anymore..or even go for regular check ups with a dermatologist...
also the dermatologist here are expensive i dont think she can afford it :(
ANY HELP FOR THE TREATMENT OF IT???

I couldn't find much, but according to this article:

a drug used to treat leprosy has been used before for that condition.

So a dermatologist might know about it. Check with a local clinic like WIC or something like that in your area about an affordable way to see one.
Good luck.

I think it's great that you want to help out your friend, and it's too bad that she has this disease. That being said, there really is no way to cure or treat it. One thing I found is this: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) where it said at the end: "Some authors have suggested the therapeutic efficacy of clofazimine and dapsone on EDP. We report a case of EDP that responded remarkably well to treatment with dapsone." I'm not entirely sure what that means, but it did say that it helped, so that could be something to maybe show your friend- perhaps she could look into it with a doctor?
