Guest guest Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 Last year I ended up with a horrible raging rash on my lower leg near my ankles. I assumed it was because I had not started the humidifier early enough and let the air get too dry and that had caused it. But this year I already started the humidifiers as soon as we put the heat on and today noticed that I have the intolerable bumpy rash itch again. The only thing that helped me from scratching myself into oblivion was a strong chickweed tea compress. But I am wondering if there is something else I can do? I don't want it to get to the stage it did last winter where my leg was red raw and woke me up with the itch. Thanks for any help. Btw have been putting moisturizing lotion on every day. hette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
