Does any one know what drug will stop this rash which is now in my fingers? I assumed it was caused becaused I scratched @ the feet & legs. I read
this damn RSD can cause it.
The hospital adviced seeing a nose & throat Dr. to find what "allergy" caused the rash.

If anyone knows what will stop the scratching I would appreciate it.
Hi, just saw your post and yes I had itching and red bumps on my toes and feet in the 1st month of RSD. It about drove me crazy!! I found that plain old anti-itch cream, (like for bug bites) the type you get at Walgreens or Rite-Aid that just says "Anti-Itch Cream" worked ok for me. Maybe it helped because I wanted it to so badly...not really sure. But its cheap and you can get it at any drug store. I hope you find some relief for your itching, it can just about make you nuts! Good luck and let us know what helped. Karen67
