The new Sarna "Sensitive" lotion has pramoxine in it.

So do read your labels. Sarcasm did not find steroids to be helpful..and so hydrocortisone would be a waste for this problem.


RSD can also cause skin blemishes...seems they appear on our skin in our affected areas.. I have several on my back since my internal chest wall involvement...they appear as dark, rough, circular raised spots... Resemble age spot on our bodies...

never a dull moment huh?!?!

Hugs, Kathy
