More time : Erythema ab igne is the medical term used for the skin condition caused by long-term exposure to heat. Prolonged thermal radiation exposure to the skin can lead to network like changes and discoloration on the skin. Abnormally pigmented skin may persist for years. Treatment with topical tretinoin or laser may improve the appearance. See your dermatologist.
