Answer: I just got over this! Well, don't use any lotions on it, it will make the spots redder and they'll last longer...Mine lasted for about 4 1/2 weeks...they look very small at first and then get bigger...but mine didn't change Bright red or anything like that..they stayed pinkish-brownish-tannish..... Lay out in the sun for a while every day, the sun helped mine..and I heard that the hydrocortisones don't help very much...I don't know why it happened to you, I'm not sure how I got it! ..only something like 2% of the population gets it..and I have it, my uncle has had it, and you have it....so just wait it out..and it will get worse before it gets better!
