Prurigo Nodularis: An Overview Read Article...

I found a zinc shampoo and rinse twice a week works for me. I do have to stay on a schedule though of using it. If I do not use it twice a week, the itchiness comes back. I also only use Aveeno products on my skin- body wash, nighttime balm all over, cream for excema during the day, face cream, face wash..These have helped with the excema and the PN but I am starting dupixent injections to help more.

Have you tried Head and Shoulders Bare? There also is an oil called Derma Smooth which my dermatologist prescribed.

Also I switched to Dove everything, my head isn't itching as bad.

I just got the 2 starter shots a few weeks ago, in 2 days I was covered in hives. I'm going to try the shot again,and if I get hives this time I can't take it. I really don't know what's next for me. Wishing you the best of luck,and I hope this treatment helps you. Prayers

Iā€™m suffering from the same with my scalp. I can say the Hydrocortisone ointment is my life saver. Nothing heals them right away, but the itch relief is a godsend.
