The rash you have is just dry skin but its really important to deal with it ASAP or itll get worse. When I was on accutane i got similar rashes on my arms and didnt deal with it - i needed a steroid cream from the dr. to clear it up after it spread all down my arms.
Moisturise the rash morning and night and it should clear if not then ask your dr. for a steroid cream

thanks!!!
back from derm today!
she did it.
2nd month,
DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so far so good.
i have more side effects now!!!!!!
before : dry lips, easy to take care / mild dry nose / some dry spots /
now : dry lips but still easy to take care and hope it stays this way / dry nose / dry face / keep breaking out here and there / red marks / hair seems to be drying out.
its been 9 weeks (55ish day), since my first pill
before i was so happy with accutane, cuz i might be the lucky one who wouldnt have wild side effect,
but i prove myself wrong.
sigh.
nice 3rd month is great you should see massive progress!
i dont think i would have a massive progress in 3rd month..........
still have red marks and some smaller new pinples,
Hi Kenny,
Long time since I wrote on your page. I am doing good....on Month 3. The doctor increased my dosage to 80mg. I am only 5'5 and weight 120 pounds. No real new side effects under this dosage. I am however, getting bruised easily and I also have read spots on my legs and arms. I attribute this to just bumping into things and the small marks must be just from that. This never happened to me before but it is now. I have very smooth clear skin. I just got one small pimple on my cheeck.
Hope it goes away soon. I am not so dry as I thought I was going to be.
Good luck on your Senior Year in college. I remember those days. I was on vacation in Hawaii for 2 weeks and honestly, I did drink. Nothing happened. My liver is fine. Just don't over do anything.
One very annoying side effect is that my muscles are very sore. It hurts. But managable.
