How long do you have to be on Beta for the Red injection spots to stop showing up? I've been on it for about 3 months and my skin still gets really red and some places are still red when it's time to inject in to that spot again. It wouldn't bother me except I feel like the ones visible to other people could make me appear to be a drug user, so I'm ready for them to be gone!

red spots
I've been taking it for 5 1/2 years and I still get the red spots sometimes. Haven't quite figured out when, but I think it has to do with heat. I think I get them more in the winter when I sleep under more covers.
Also, some of the places have calmed down. I don't really have trouble with my arms anymore. My thighs have always been the worst.
You can ask your neurologist to prescribe a topical cream or gel to help. I've used both prescription-strength hydrocortisone, and triamcinalone. They've helped some of the symptoms, but I'm not sure the bumps go away any faster.

Some help for red spots
Hello Hlawman,
I have been getting those red spots too. My Dr. actually recommended a hemorrhoidal cream to help alleviate the redness. He got that tip from a patient who is a nurse too. That does help. It takes a few days but lessens the length of it. Hope that helps you.
