Bunny,

I have MS and I have spinal lesions. Because of these lesions I get itching on my upper arm and on my back in between my shoulders.

It can be maddening because no matter how much I scratch the itch it doesn't go away.

I can always tell when it's a "lesion itch" or just a regular itch because the lesion itch is not helped.....no matter how much I scratch the area.

Be careful that you don't break the skin or otherwise irritate the area.

Sometimes lotion helps but usually I just have to wait for the lesion to calm down. I still can't figure out what aggravates it.

Hope you feel better soon.
