@packer2. My first onset had almost like a nerve pain - and was in spots where I couldn’t see any bumps. I thought it was shingles at first. My second flare up did not have that same sensation, but I did get a secondary yeast infection with my second bout. I thought I was going to scratch my skin off. After the yeast cleared up, it’s just bumps with less symptoms. They never go away completely and feel bumpy. I was just persistent in contacting my dermatologist as things changed, and he has been great. Anytime you have open skin, you are subject to secondary problems. Hope that helps!

I experience the same. For me I find tiny almost microscopic pink itchy bumps which eventually fully erupt. If I catch them early with Triamcinolone ointment they resolve. Sometimes the phototherapy makes them fully erupt. Can’t win.
