Side Effects of Common MPN Treatments Read Article...

Definitely have your physician look at this. Any activity from an old, healed scar is worrisome, and I have learned recently that there is a specific type of skin cancer that develops in scar tissue. Hope this resolves quickly for you.

I don't have medical knowledge other than my own research, but basically it is an unusual chronic form of skin imflammation. It can attach itself to various areas on the body, especially in the mouth or in folds of the skin, and in male and female genitals. It can also appear as lesions in old wounds or scars. My consultant allowed me to stop taking Hu because of direct side effects caused by this inflammation. It is quite a rare side effect or just something that most people don't report adequately. I am hoping that ceasing Hu will in time stop these worrying side effects.
