Members shared that prurigo nodularis (PN) affects nearly every part of their bodies, with the most commonly mentioned areas being arms, legs, back, buttocks, scalp, and torso, though several members described having lesions everywhere from head to toe with very few clear areas remaining. Many members described the physical discomfort as extreme, with some experiencing burning sensations and others feeling self-conscious about the appearance of their skin. A recurring theme was the emotional toll of living with widespread PN, yet members found comfort in praying for one another and sharing their experiences openly.
