Skin changes with prednisone

Yes, I’ve noticed I bleed very easily if something scratches my arm like a branch or the dogs claws. The never happened before prednisone. I started at 20mg and now down to 2mg, with help from Kevzara. I’m wondering if my thin skin will stay that way or return back to how it was once off prednisone.

I’ve noticed it for quite a while and I’m on 5mg pred and Actemra infusion. My Rheumatologist shrugs his shoulders as if it’s all part of the process.
