Hi Guys,
Has any
one been troubled by an itchy rash across the shoulders and arms. It is so bad that I can`t stop scratching it, and of course I break the skin which makes it worse. I was prescribed Elocon steroid cream and Diprobase emollient cream as well as Dermol shower cream. They never really worked so I went back to the doc and was given Fucibet steroid cream and Aveeno cream but this hasn`t worked either.
   I`m hoping that one of you might have the solution to this problem because I`m at my wits end trying not to scratch it. Anybody got any advice or is it just another one of the burdens of Crohns!!!

Hoping For an Answer,
Delilah.

I have had this but as a side effect of the azathioprine.. I use antihistamines an eurax hc cream on it.. Mine flares if my skin is exposed to the sun or high heat - if I go in the sun I have to wear factor 50+ sun screen an if its warm I have a fan on me to keep my skin cool, an that udually keeps it down and more manageable for me..
