Question Stickgirl - anyone - what kind of wrap for burning-itching?

Hi Lyn, I noticed in one of the posts that you said you have some kind of wrap for your hand when it gets hot and red. Because of the hot humid weather we have been having in the NE; the last 2 days my foot is red, swollen, burning and itching like crazy. By the end of the day, I can barely stand it! Does the wrap you use help with itching? Any one else have any ideas? I can't use any thing cold. Thanks! Hope your Wednesday is going okay.
Dianne

Soxy, have you tried lidoderm patches at all? They help the itchy, burning, pain, redness and sensitivity.

The wraps my therapist gives me is like what a Dr would put on your arm or leg before the plaster for a cast. It's thin, but fits snugly on my arm. She cuts a small slit for my thumb, and long enough for my whole arm. It helps with the swelling, keeps the wind/drafts off of it, doestn't help for the redness at all.

I hope this helps you, have a good day

Yes Soxy a perscription is needed for these patches. My Doc write it for a 30 day supply, 3 a day. He faxes a perscription to my pharmacy every 3 weeks, this way I never run out and the pharmacy has a week to get approval before I need them.
