| I have had several bad outbreaks from pi in the last couple of years...this time it's on my legs and came from my dog so we must always be vigilant! I have not seen anyone mention Zanfel....an expensive cleansing solution but it does work to relieve the itch and help the rash heal faster. 1-2 washes is supposed to help but I didn't get much relief until after about 10 washes this past week and it was pretty hard on my skin. Steroid cream never helped much but rhuli gel, now in spray,is great, especially if used after a hot water shower directly on the rash; itches like crazy, you're almost screaming in the shower, but then it subsides; follow up with rhuli and the relief lasts for for hours. My only concern is a possible infection this time; every afternoon I feel achy and fatigued and have a low grade fever. I've also had lyme disease so I'm concerned that there might be a disguised tick bite rash somewhere...anyone ever get an infection with pi? I haven't scratched any blisters that I'm aware of....thanks for any help! |
