My advice. Cold showers, at half-hour intervals.

Well, atm i'm pouring cold water over my head at half-hour intervals, which helps, but it realy is unpleasant. But a cold shower? That has to be horrible, but if it gets me through this, then i'll take it!

Hey I have an idea..
Why dont you peel off all of your skin? :D It would get rid of the problem, just do it in a place with good drainage though [img]tongue.gif[/img]

LOL that idea i like :D :D nice one [img]smile.gif[/img]

Considering that I was covered in about more layers of Camoline lotion than a honey roasted ham, and still itched, I'm of the opinion that the only thing that will reduce the itching/swelling are regular cold showers *not ice cold, but less than "warm"*.

Well if you treasure your skin as much as I do, you could always chop off the fingers :D

Well, when i get majorly annoyed with the ones on my back and front, i guess i'll take your advice, Sigmar. The cold water *REALY* helps my head, so i think i deffinatly will take cold showers. I'll need to pluck up the courage to face the freeze though...

Hmmm, the only serious advice I can think of is using Aloe vera.... I think thats what my mum used when I had them.
it really stopped the scratching cravings.
I would ask her but its 4:00AM, and I doubt she would appreciate me waking her, or ,y dad [img]tongue.gif[/img]
