Any help for extreme burning and skin pain that lasts for hours . I can not sleep and can’t even concentrate on watching the TV. It’s so bad that now having to change clothes multiple times a day. The pain and stinging is so bad is there anything out there to help? I am currently taking Balenium cream and steroid cream along side anti histamine. I need to stop this incredible pain , tingling and burning

I tried Emuaid Max from Amazon and it seems to work really well so far!

Hi David! Have you tried capsaicin based creams, or other OTC products that have a numbing effect? I also suggest contacting your dermatologist since the symptom you're experiencing could be related to nerve pain.

I have found that soaking in cool water brings a tremendous amount of relief. Temp about 85 or cooler depending on your tolerances. If you have a pool, wonderful but a tub will do. shower not as effective. it's the time in the cool water that helps. in my experience, has some carryover benefits after the soak. good luck.

Nemluvio has been the most effective in decreasing the itching and now 1-2 Allegra per day seem to help
A year of cremes, immunosuppressant injections seemed to worsen it

Was on so much different stuff even shots which made me ill. Going to go to Ann allergy doc if I can find a good one. There is a shampoo for scalp so far helping me.
