Had Pelvic Fracture After Automobile Accident, Scars On Arms. Who Can I Get Rid Of It?
My name is Lydia. Last year I was involved in a car accident, I had a pelvic fracture but that's a problem solved for now. My worry is about the ugly marks on my arm! they are dark and they healed outward. My doctor said that it mostly heal that way for people of African ethnicity. How do I get rid of the marks because I believe no cream will be able to eliminate them completely. please help.

Hi,
It seems that you might be having bad scar giving rise to this problem.
Apply some steroid cream locally for some time.
If there is no improvement then consult surgeon and take advice regarding plastic surgery.
Ok and take care.
