Hi Hannah,
LED Therapy might be of use. Might want to email this guy, he makes
most of the LED Arrays that are sold on the internet:

660nm (red) LED light speeds healing of wounds, infections, and other
conditions to a depth of about 1" by increasing cellular ATP and energy
while reducing pain.
Warmly,
Craig
I wonder if any of the members could point me towards solution for
(possible) Livedo Reticularis.
As a regular user of CS I have to assume that the CS as such is not
having any impact on this since I have had this discolourisation of
thighs for as long as I can remember. Wouldn't even be able to say if
it looks worse now than before, mostly because I m so used to it.
The dermatologist seems to think it may be related to a form of lupus or
other auto immune condition (test results should be in soon). From what
I have been reading it appears idiopathic (a good one for guinea pig
drug testing of course) but I haven't come across anything to improve
this with an alternative approach. The only discomfort I experience is
a tightness of top layer of skin of thighs and a hot burning sensation
at times. Hard to know if that is from possible Dercum's, or from this
suspected LR.
Up until now I used that sensation as an indicator that I was
dehydrated and upped my fluid intake.. but perhaps there is more to it.
Anyone?
Thanks
Hanneke

*Livedo reticularis
http://skin-care.health-cares.net/livedo-reticularis.php*
Livedo reticularis is a blue-reddish skin discoloration and most often
localized in the lower extremities. The pathological mechanism of this
is poorly understood. Probably it is related to the peripheral blood
flow redistribution. Livedo reticularis mostly represents an idiopathic
condition but may be associated with systemic diseases.
Livedo reticularis is a disorder in which blood vessels are constricted,
or narrowed. It results in mottled discoloring on large areas of the
legs or arms. Livedo reticularis refers to a condition in which dilation
of capillary blood vessels and stagnation of blood within these vessels
causes mottled discolouration of the skin. It is described as being
reticular (net-like) cyanotic (reddish blue discolouration) cutaneous
discolouration surrounding pale central areas.
