Hi,
During my 4 th chemo session my cheeks and nose turned red and after few days turned to dark patches. And burning sensation. It now looks like hyperpigmentation. Yes my oncologist prescribed hydrocortisone. She said it happens and would disappear. But now after so many months the dark patches not gone.

Geez, I am sorry you are going this. I had some not fun side effects from chemo but not this one.
Hopefully some others will chime in with their experience with this.
If it were me I might ask to see a dermatologist and see if they had any suggestions.
