Just wanted to know if anyone out there has had a problem with a itching back. I am not nuts so don't even think that. I have had this problem for years and have tried allergy meds, changed clothes detergent, used moisturizers and today took a Valium. But, nothing seems to work. Any recommendations? Thanks a lot, before the white-coats come to get me.

The itching..arg
The itching comes and goes. I have to give her a bath at least once a week with moisturizing/soothing shampoo and she's off all wheat except for what the kids sneak her.
Dog training went great and we have her getting along with my neighbor's dog and one of my siblings dogs.
We're working on a third dog but that dog has issues that need to be worked on too. We have that dog on a head halter type thing but we're getting it a basket muzzle for any walking we do.
The eyes are cleared up. She's on glucosamine for her bum knee which seems to be helping. If she would just stop jumping over the back fence, it would probably be all better. She likes to jump over, steal the other dog's toys and then jump back over to our yard.
She and the cats are getting along fine, unless Lucy the cat decides to walk on Lily. Lily gets VERY upset when Lucy does that. Lucy is a bit of a moron so I think Lily better just get used to it lol
You did not say why itching?
Because of the arthritis or ?
Thanks for your help. I am still itching! NM

When I had one, I had intense itching, but
no burning. Regarding sex, everything is rubbed everywhere, so I guess an infection could end up there.

It's a very embarrassing subject, had to bring it up with two docs. Both ignored it. I ended up diagnosing myself, it was a pain med I was on, stopped when I discontinued. Had them after pregnancy, used hot baths, then hemorrhoidal ointment. Sometimes the hot baths will dry the skin, thus the itching. Bubble baths are also VERY bad for both the anal and genital area. Don't blame your husband yet, could be an allergy to something, i.e. new laundry soap, etc. Good luck with it.
not sure but an MD told me that a lot of body itching
and the product he ordered for me and my daughter was something like Exelon shampoo (prescription but I may be misspelling it) - it's the same ingredient as what is in Selsun Blue which can be bought over the counter.
Hope she feels better too........we when through this when my daughter was a teen..........
I wear gas permeable contact lenses and have been having trouble with itching eyes and whitish
exudate when I wear them lately and the eye doc says it is allergies. I have tried Allergan for contact lens problems but it doesnt really work. It may also be my eyes are dry. I dont want to try other lenses but just wondered if anyone else has this problem. I end up wearing my glasses and I actually see better with the lenses but they have become very uncomfortable. I am middle aged by the way. I never had this problem before and did you find anything that works.
