Does Everybody Itch With This Horrible Disease?

A MyPrurigoTeam Member asked a question 💭
Pottstown, PA

I've been dealing with this for over a year now. I am 56 years old and I have never had a skin problem in my life. When I read try to find information about it. It's always about itching. Severe itching! Fortunately I don't have that and honestly I couldn't imagine it. But my body has scars which makes my skin lighter pink in some areas. My legs have the round black sores that I don't know where they came from. It is so embarrassing. Someone mentioned COVID and in 2020 I had COVID so bad that I… read more

Hi Michelle. You’ve gone through a lot. So sorry. My lesions are very itchy. Hardly bearable. I also have noticed that each one has tiny black dots usually around the edges. My doctor says it’s just blood but she barely looked and says I don’t have any parasites or anything but she really isn’t interested in examining me thoroughly. I know they’re there but don’t have a clue what they are. Does anyone else have these dark dots??
I ordered a new cream that’s homeopathic and totally natural ingredients that is working well. It’s for all sorts of skin ulcers and dermatitis etc. in the states you apparently can buy it at Walmart. It’s expensive but I think it’s going to be worth it. I’ve only used it for 5 days now. It’s called EMUAID MAX. Everyone should look at it on internet and give it a try. It’s even written for PN also. Best of luck.

When I had the 'craters' that ended up having like dark tubes around outside, I had to dig out those tubes, let it bleed good, then it would start healing, and go into the next faze of he!!.
Thank you for talking it out, I'd like to know how the supplements go, too!

Yeah why don't you try to stop and see what happens? I'm curious since you're taking a supplement. If that's why your skin is worse. Please let me know. You're welcome and thank you!
