I also am experiencing secondary breakouts and just general itchiness even where there is not breakout. The secondary breakouts are small with little or no blistering but very very itchy. I have no scientific basis for this supposition, but it seems to me that since I am a highly allergic person anyway, I am probably "reacting to the reaction" from the initial PI outbreak. I think all you can do is keep experimenting with all the great remedies suggested on this web site and just grit your teeth till you round the corner. I do believe that you should avoid scratching as it seems to just stimulate itching in other areas even those where there is no rash. I concur with the person who said the skin is all one organ -- you are bound to have sympathetic itching in other non-affected areas. Good luck everyone, and thanks for al the terrific info shared on this site.
