Members rallied around someone experiencing severe itching and rash on both legs from knees to ankles, sharing their own similar struggles with eczema, bacterial infections, and mysterious rashes that have resisted multiple treatments and dermatologist visits. Several members offered practical relief strategies, including CBD taken internally, Domeboro and Cerave creams, triamcinolone prescription cream (though one noted it made symptoms worse), Eucerin lotion, prednisone and antibiotics for secondary infections like impetigo, and avoiding extreme heat. A recurring theme was the frustration of cycling through treatments without clear answers, the unpredictable nature of flare-ups, and the solidarity of knowing others are fighting the same exhausting battle with intense itching and pain.

I have the same thing on one leg only. I have swelling and water retention too. I am 53 and this is the first time i ever had this. My dr. said I probably have a bacterial infection so she has me taken an oral med. We shall see. I also get little rashes on my lower back too.
