Brachioradial pruritus. (severe itching on forearms and neck, no rash).

Car accident gave me severe cervical disc injuries. At 5 years into 2 shoulder surgeries the pain and numbness in both forearms suddenly SUDDENLY became this INSANITY. I thought I got bit by something, washed arm real good. NEVER did I think I could experience something so horrendous. I found myself itching this ONLY to have a BURNING sensation that came in waves. Lidocaine did NOTHING.
ONLY ice. This has gotten soo bad I'm covering ICE with salt then rubbing this 22-24°F ICE back and forth until I'm nearly burned. Acupuncture is my NEXT step.
I take no drugs- THIS is as close to utter INSANITY as I can imagine.
I live alone- when this starts I have found myself nearly SCREAMING / squealing running for ice and salt. If someone caught an episode on video they'd think I was on drugs. There's NOTHING humorous about this.
I pray for ANYONE suffering this -healing love and peace

I consider myself extremely blessed. I suffered on and off with this horrible infliction for about 6 years - typically seasonally, Sept to Nov. At first I thought it was an allergy to the sun. The creams helped until this year and it just never went away and ice was the only relief. Coincidentally, I was suffering with an extreme lower back issue. I found a fantastic chiropractor who did say I had some cervical compression as well - which he corrected. But I do believe that adjustment combined with CBD oil took all my symptoms away. Best luck.
