Why The Sun Burn Has Not Yet Healed On My Chest And Legs After 3 Years And Producing Blisters Also The Skin On Shins Is Patchy ?
Hi I got real bad sunburn about 3 years ago over my chest and legs, my legs where the worse prodcing large pussy blisters. The hair has still yet to grow in some areas and 3 or so years later Im still getting little white blistersl when scratched the skin peels away. They are only small but are on both legs where the burns where a number of years ago. Should I be concerned about this? as it was some years ago. The skin on my shins is also patchy in colour.
