Spanish term or phrase: lesiones autoinvolutivas
The reference is to erythrodermia provoked by medication. The text reads, "las lesiones son autoinvolutivas en 1-3 semanas, por lo que hay que seguir un tratamiento conservador con corticosteroides tópicos, o incluso, abstenerse de cualquier terapéutica."

regressive lesions


Explanation:
We´re talking about a skin condition, so lesion seems more appropriate than injury.

"A retrospective analysis of 78 patients showed that 22 presented persistent lesions, 2 had progressive lesions, 4 had regressive lesions, " www.scielo.br/scielo.php?pid=S1413-86702005000500007&script...
"Only three patients (11%) presented two active lesions and in two of them, a regressive lesion coexisted" linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0002939402013247
