Iron stain

Hi Sisters!

I was given an iron injection 3 years ago by a doctor. It left staining on my skin. I was not told this was a possibility. I have tried various treatments unsuccessfully to remove it. Has anyone had treatment on an iron stain and it has actually worked? Could you please list details. I’ve had enough of being branded!

I cannot help with treatment but I have had this also.

I had a course of 3 iron injections over a few months 5 years ago in each arm. I had staining for the best part of those 5 years and then one day when I woke up it was gone. I did notice now thinking back that they did fade slightly over the years.

I must say it was horrible having like a bruise on each arm for years it was unsightly. I was told nothing about the staining prior to my injections if I'd know I would have insisted on a infusion.

Sorry I couldn't be of any help other than my experience.
