I know your story…..age, activity etc. My pool place said no new chemicals. Never thought abt prednisone.
My itchy came in Dec , 5 months after stopping prednisone.
I went to Dermatologist who said it was a contact dermatitis, and he gave me anRX cream 2 times a day. Working so far.

@tweetypie13 Also, it would be more typical after stopping topical prednisone cream, but can also happen systemically. Again, curious -
