Hey @A MyEczemaTeam Member! I'm so sorry you're dealing with this right now. What has worked for me in the past was showering, moisturizing, putting on some new clothes, and taking an anti-histamine like Zertec or Allegra to support me. Even using an ice pack or something cold to put on the itchy skin. Take it easy and be graceful with yourself ❤️
