It gotten a little better with switching face washes and other than my face and neck I'm almost clear but...now it itches like crazy and when I itch it gets worse! Anybody else have itchy acne and how did you treat it?
Avatar f tn Maybe eczema. I get it on my hands likes that when I do a lot of cleaning with harsh products. Try hydrocortizone cream.
Avatar f tn I have suffered itchy arms on and off for ten years. Usually if I go out into the sunshine without barrier cream. It can last for a few weeks. It starts with burning sensation and I can feel the hairs on my arms standing up. Sometimes I get a stinging sensation which is unbearable, I haverer to dig my fingernails into the area to get relief This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/241701'>Severe Itching on arms</a>.
Avatar n tn Thanks for all of your advice on itchy arms - I have suffered this problem for 30 years -it is getting much worse now as I get older - calamine lotion used to help years ago when it was mild -then i started taking antitistimines and they helped for a few years, but now at 55 even they no longer work. It is much worse in the summer months.
Avatar f tn I have had itchy tingling arms for over 20 years. I have been to so many doctors, I've lost count. Some say it's allergys. Some say it's stress. Some creams work for a while. I've taken alot of allergy meds. Zyrtec seemed to help more than the others. I also take Doxipen. the Dr. just doubled my dose. I have a steriod cream that I use as well. It only helps during the day for a while.
Avatar n tn t know how itchy arms happens but I found something that made the super itchiness in my arms stop. A friend who's had a life-time of eczema told me about bleach baths. So I did as he advised, I took a cup of bleach (Clorox) and poured it in a bath tub of warm/hot water and got in it for 10 minutes. The first time I did this ended all of the itching. Four days later I did this bleach bath again because I thought I felt the itch returning and again it worked.
Avatar n tn i was reading the post that you guys sent in about itchy arms.
Avatar n tn This has also been a problem for me off and on since I had mono in 2001 and got the milk of the yarrow plant on my arms. Currently my doctor has sent me to the gastro to get my stomach and colon checked out. They are looking for Celiacs disease. For me, I do really believe it's related to both allergies and cervical spine misalignment, which I just learned could be the reason today as I googled... Good luck to you in finding the cure.
Avatar n tn Hello everyone! There used to be an 'itchy arm' forum started in 2000 on PiA, but was disbanned today. Anyway, I was a member there since 2008 and have had itchy arms for 8 years myself. Thank goodness I found out what was causing mine after 7 years. I did ALOT of research and found out about brachioradial pruritus and it's various causes. Many of the "Deep" itches talked about are actually nerve related which is why neurontin helps. It's also why ice helps...
Avatar f tn I have been suffering from itchy arms for about 20 years and nothing helps except ice packs. There is no rash, this seems to come on in the late summer to early fall or when I am particularly stressed. What might help? Someone suggested I may have a sulfer shortage in my body.
Avatar n tn I have been dealing with the itchy arms for the past 4 years. It starts in August and lasts a few months. Last night was by far the worst it has ever been! I live in the Cincinnati area. The itching is a deep prickly feeling with no visible signs on the skin. The more you scratch the worse it gets. It is so frustrating and No doctor seems to have a clue what it is!!! It is on my arms, from the wrist to my shoulders. but now it has been on my neck as well.
1040102 tn?1253004057 I have had itchy arms for 20 years. There is no rash, scaling, or anything. It can come on at any time of the year and usually lasts for 6 to 8 weeks. The more I scratch to more it stings and burns. It feels like someone is sticking me repeatedly with a needle. Its driving me crazy!!!! can anyone help. I have heard I could possibly need a neurologist.My arms will bleed I scratch so much. Ice gel packs help more anything Ive tried.
Avatar f tn I HAVE HAD ITCHY ARMS FOR 5YRS ON AND OFF AND THE ONLY THING THAT HELPED WAS ALPRAZOLAM AND THE DOCTORS WILL NOT PRESCRIBE IT TO ME ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO?
Avatar n tn Welcome to the site and to the community. You have come to a place where people are very supportive and have a lot of information. I would like to point out that as the information on your left says, this is only my personal advice and you should always consult a doctor with problems first. Also, while it is understandable to want information or advice about medication/s you should never alter or stop without speaking to the prescribing doctor first.
Avatar n tn She has red sores all over her body, the worst places being her arms and her back. they are not on her face though. The sores are extremely itchy and we havent found any remedy. She has been to many doctors, but so far none of the expensive medicines or creams have helped. She is even taking shots to help. Any thoughts?
Avatar n tn today i got a really spontaneous itchy and burning sensation on my back, it started of normal but then i noticed it wouldnt go away and started to get more pain full, this is with out it even being scratched, it then died down but came up another 3 times duing the day but is now effecting my chest arms and stomach area but not as bad, what could be the origins of this problem. and remedy. N.B for the passed 3 days i have been suffering from a heavy fever and decreased my food in take by alot.
Avatar n tn I do not have any rashes or signs of scabies. I do have dry skin on my legs and arms that I am trying to remedy but I don't understand the itching on the rest of me. It makes me miserable at night and my fiancee too because I squirm for the first part of the night and then if I awaken also. Any suggestions??
987762 tn?1671273328 I have tried every cream, medicine, folk remedy etc.. I literally bandage my legs and arms up with neosporin, gauze, and ace bandages every night before I go to bed to try to protect them from myself. I sometimes try to sleep with socks on my hands too. I usually wake up with the socks gone off my hands and the bandages all messed up from me digging into them in my sleep. I am at a total loss of what to do next. Benadryl does not help either.
