Please, does anyone know how to diminish the ugly red blotches resulting from Carac use on hands and forearms?

I finished treatment over three weeks ago.  I treated partial area of my face at the same time.  My face still has discolored areas but nothing like my arms and hands. 

I would really appreciate hearing from anyone with similar experience. 

THANKS!

Ask your Dermatologist about prescribing Lidex steroid salve. It worked wonders on my face.

I am almost 3 weeks from Efudex and also have red blotches, I really think its just a waiting game. I do use Vaseline with hydrocortisone and it helps. I have also started to use my own moisturizers but they create a redder face. I do not know about your blotches but mine are fading slowly. As I said its a waiting game, do not despair from all I have read they do eventually fade.
