Does PN Feel Differently Depending On The Stage That It's In?

Do the sores that are healing feel different from the raw sores and the itchy skin with no blemishes? Does any of it feel like a neuropathic, tingling itch? Bugs crawling on your skin, itch? Other?

For me it is. There's no bugs, but it feels like it alot. Even when there's no itch, many times I have a spider feel on my skin.

Yes I always felt like I was infested with tiny crawling bugs. Scabies or maybe bed bugs in my house. Nope it's just the PN I have a high level of stress like all of us have some stress it's impossible to escape the stress. But I know stress makes me itch and break out. I asked my derm to do a parasite test. She did nothing was found. She said unfortunately it's PN. SOMETIMES I DONT BELIEVE I HAVE TO DEPRESSING SKIN DISORDER. I DONT THINK BIOPSIES LIE!
