Unsual: It is unlikely that celebrex would cause a localized skin lesion over the joints. I wonder however if you did have injections into the joints and your skin has become sensitized or irritated by the antiseptic used Apply topical hydrocortisone cream to see if this helps. If not, asking your doctor Rx a more potent one. Do note that chronic NSAID intake ->cardiovascular disease.
