I got diagnosed with brachioradial pruitus nearly a yr ago. Been to a dermatologist and sent me home with cream. Nothing works the doctors gave me antihistamines doesn’t help. The ice packs helps I can relate to you with the sun it burns my arms. I bought zinc solbar suncream( broad spectrum 38 factor) I been spending a small fortune trying to find anything to help the itching specially at night

Hi @anne12. Glad you called on me for some input, but my personal experience is not going to be very helpful to you -- first because it turned out that dry skin, not brachioradial pruritus was my problem and, second, a good moisturizer put the problem behind me. I will say, though, that you may get some help and insights from https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/21181-brachioradial-pruritus, which I cited in the post you referenced. Is there anything in that article that gives you hope for relief? Martin

For some unexplained reason my brachioradial pruritus symptoms subsided on 3/23. I purchased a bottle of moringa oil per the recommendation from another blogger. My itching almost disappeared for about 10 days. I live in Florida and took a road trip to Chicago where the itching started up again. But, not nearly as severe. I continue to use the moringa oil and it does help. Give it a try.
