Hi all,
I posted a few other times on here, but today when I tried to log in, the forum didn't recognize me and all my posts were gone...was it all a dream? Weird. Anwyho, I have a new question that I am hoping you guys might have some comments on. My skin is insanely itchy, mostly in patches on my arms and legs, and my scalp is so itchy it drives me craaaazy! The patches will get real red when they itch, and then it'll subside (in a specific area) for a while and the skin goes mostly back to normal. There are a few bumps here and there, but mostly just really blotchy and red. The blotches are especially annoying on my face and neck, since it looks like I am all flushed or have hickeys or something! I don't know if any of this has to do with Crohn's or if it is just extremely dry skin (I've had dry skin before, but nothing even close to this). Have any of you heard of/had experience with this, and do you have any suggestions for easing the itch?
Thanks so much!
