Default Neurodermatology, itchy facial spots now

Just to add itchiness to injury I currently look like I have flipping chicken pox. One raised spot on my face is now a delightful symmetrical pattern of alternating itchy or bleeding spots developed over the last 3 weeks, with the ever present one right at the injury sight.

I have always been naughty at picking spots but this is horrible and pretty painful - like facial shingles. I have combined antibiotic hydrocortisone cream to keep the scratch/itch under control. Anyone else got facial spots since their tbi?

TBI and PCS symptoms all came about 3 weeks after an accident at work in February 2012 when I hit my head on the corner point of a metal barrier at brisk walking pace.

Life as I knew it came to a shuddering halt that day. 20 year history of depression and anxiety now coupled with memory issues, personality change, speech and communication problems, ringing ears, impulsivity etc etc etc.

Damaged people are dangerous.....they know they can survive!
