I had some cortisone injections in March which left atrophic scars or indentations on my chin.Im currently takingSpironolactone and wondered if this could be slowing down the healing process?

Is there anything I can do to speed up the healing process?

 

Thank you x

I take Spironolactone 7 days before my period to control pre-menstrual flare up and I haven't noticed any issues with healing. Why are you asking? Is this an issue?

Hi BlueMaloney,

I have atrophic scars in my skin following cortisone injections.I have read many articles and apparently they usually fill in naturally within 3 months. Mine still havent healed so I was wondering whether the Spironolactone that Im taking is slowing down the healing process and whether there is anything I can do to speed things up?

Ok...no i havent noticed anything negative from the med yet in terms of healing. What did your doctor say? I take high doses of vit c that helps with healing after subcision.

I will increase my intake of Vitamin C and see if that works. I havent mentioned it to my doctor yet but will do at my next appointment.
