PMR Anyone?

Interesting comment re sensitivity of your skin @pampep. Prior to my diagnosis of PMR the backs of my hands became sensitive at irregular intervals and it was like someone running a knife across my hands. Your analogy of sunburn is probably closer than mine in retrospect. It disappeared after going onto Prednisolone but in the last week have started to notice it coming back but not everyday and doesn’t last long and at the moment only on the back of my left hand.

I have several autoimmune problems including PMR and often experience itchy scaly knuckles and back of hands. Ordinary coconut oil is great. Possibly warm it a bit if you live where it's cooler. Also on dry, itchy arms and legs !!!
