    Welcome from the Ozark mountains.

    If you are in the Louisville KY area, if I recall correctly there are several IFI members there. I have the same problem with IR tanning on my arms. I always attributed it to being 80 years old with thinning skin and forging hot steel for 40+ years. I found what helps me is an inexpensive pair of leather slip on arm sleeve guards, like welders and archers use. Harbor Freight has them along with most sporting goods stores. Too bad they don't help with the bruising, when I bump into the walls.:D

    The thin skin and bruising issues may be caused by an under active Thyroid.
