Just wondering if anyone had a malar rash go away with treatment?

Under my eyes are bright white, then there are distinct red lines underneath that curve up and form pretty much the classic butterfly rash.

IT's not raised at all and has no bumps etc. The skin is smooth, just very red.

If yours did go away, what do you think helped to get rid of it? (abx....or anything else)?

Thanks so much!

I've seen them get much more involved but can't say I've heard of anyone saying they go away. But I wouldn't listen to me about that... because obviously I haven't heard from everyone.

I have noted the sun can make them more intense. I've seen them be almost purple-colored.

Have you been checked for Parvo B-19? Might wanna be?

Bartonella can cause a deep colored place too... FYI.

Sorry no answers that are exact... but I am trying!
