Chronic Seasonal Skin Itching & Allergy
"I have had chronic skin itching since i was 10-11 yrs old ,now i am 19yrs, which worsens during the rainy season.
Medical History & Trauma: I previously took Kenacort 40 injections (3 doses), which caused massive side effects: menstrual irregularities, weight gain, liver issues, high cholesterol, and severe pus-filled acne on the face and neck. I am now terrified of steroids, oral medications, and injections.
Current Status: My acne is cured, but the itch persists.
