Have you tried the Aveeno anti-itch cream it comes in a small tube that is OTC? it was designed for the Chickenpox, but it works on other itchy things like Shingles too, there is something in it that makes those less painful.
Thank you, Gail..I am well..no new outbreak and no itching..I tried various things but icewater/ice packs worked best..and benedryl.
I was busy! LOL
