I certainly can relate with the itching problem, my back is always itchy. I dont know of anything to try but certainly can relate with your problem.

I left an answer to your post all the way at the bottom.  Just wanted you to know.

Re: your itching ... I used Lac-Hydrin (prescription) when it was really bad, then switched to Sarna afterwards.  Worked like a charm.

If you have the riba rash...try using Gold Bond Triple Threat Anti Itch Medicated Lotion in the green bottle and the red top SEVERAL times a day.  It's helped a LOT of us big time.

But...once the itching stops DONT discontinue using or it will come right back (as I found out the hard way).

Also for when I got it really bad in a certain spot I used hydrocortizone .1% until I had hydrated well enough with the GB Lotion to make it work.

It only took about 3 days until I noticed almost COMPLETE cure of the Itch.

Good luck!

wish there was more on this.  I just got clean again and the itching is BAAACK.  I read last night to use Benydryl but I've been drowsy all day.  I also read that grapfruit juice will make the iching (medicos refer to it as Perititus), so I'm guzzling the stuff, I'll ket you know...
