Hot Water Burn marks on skin

Evening all!

I have been using hot water bottles for years for a bad back and anxiety issues, I have had on and off burn marks on my back and legs from using the hot water bottles which are making me self conscious and low.

Has anyone else had this and if so what did you use to eliminate the marks? I have tried google and nothing is much help.

My friend has this exact same thing. She has used hot water bottles for years on her back and shoulders so because of continued use it is unlikely that the marks will disappear. There is nothing you can use (to her knowledge) that will get rid of it. The only thing you can do, she has been told, is to stop using the hot water bottles to give the skin a chance to recover. She seems almost addicted to using them now so I doubt she will ever be able to let her skin heal.
