So i am currently going through a "remission" period after being on prednasone. my skin is itchy as hell and redder. i am so mad and freaking out, which in turn is making me itchier. is there any baths, lotions, ANYTHING that would soothe the itch? I tried sarna, taking a cold shower, aveena oatmeal bath, dead sea salt mineral bath....but i am so itchy. any ideas would help. thanks
