Pruritis, or generalized itching, is the most common presenting skin complaint.
Since pruritis may be caused by a particular skin disease or may occur without evidence of any specific skin disorder, diagnosis can be challenging for the clinician.
Patients often complain of pruritis that is much greater than one might expect from the appearance of the lesion.
Pruritis is just not iching, its a very serious side effect of a mal-functioning liver.
Pruritis, true pruritis, takes more than a lotion, and can be so bad that the only cure is a transplant.
Pruritis is logged with Glaxco Smith Kline as a very rare 0.03 to 0.05% side effect of the vaccine, but they have been unhelpful in providing detailed info, except to say it will eventually fade.
