Organic Anti Itch and Rash Cream for Dry Cracked Skin and Nourishing Cream - Hydrating Itchy Skin for Adults - for Eczema Prone Area (4oz)

Have not had a lot of relief yet, some but just started using. Remain hopeful with more continued use for more relief.

Purchased for my fiancee. She had developed shingles on the side of her neck and face. She began applying the cream at the point that the blisters began to develop. Blisters dried up and swelling reduced within 2 days, pain was greatly reduce. she continued use until redness was gone, about two weeks later. She also had shingles on the back of her head under her hair where she was unable to apply the cream. She still had the rash there 6 weeks later, so I have to think the cream was very effective. I gave only 4 stars because we weren't sure if the cream could be used at all stages of the rash, as this wasn't addressed on the container or the manufacturers web page. We sent an email to the manufacturer to ask about this but received no response. We were concerned because many products state that use should be discontinued when the blister break and scab over, so we weren't sure if she was suppose to continue using the product.

Product soothing, only slight smell to it that disappears quickly. Results are not as quick as other reviewers commented.

Today I'm starting Week 5 of this shingles hell. If you have this horrible condition, or have had it, no words are needed to describe how excruciatingly painful this is and debilitating. The pain is constant, the itching unbearable. I have shingles on my right front and back torso. It robs you of your life for a whole block of time. Sought medical treatment the day the rash appeared. Dr gave me prescription for Valtrex, 5% Lidocaine and told me to take Advil. On Week 2, I sought the prescription they offered for 800 mg ibuprofen, took for four days and then broke out with a ghastly case of hives over the blistery shingles. I will never forget that week! Hives resolved with copious amounts of Benadryl, then was just left with the shingles rash. Tried everything to get some relief, lidocaine offered initial relief but then became irritating. Then, capzasin (made me see stars!), calamine lotion, lidocaine creme and roll-on, oatmeal baths, Uber Numb, several itch cremes, Benadryl gel. Then went on to home remedies, Virgin coconut oil (internal and topically), Turmeric tea and tea tree oil. Had great hopes for Bee Propolis mending salve....nothing. Finally found DermaChange Shingles Relief Cream....wish I could say like another reviewer that it gave me immediate relief, which is reason for only 4 stars. It is Day 3 using this DermaChange cream....easy and soothing to put on; relieves itch and pain for about a few hours. Then I'm back to tingling and pain until I put it on again. I must say that when I put it on, I get the most relief I've had than any of the above remedies, prescription or otherwise. I still cannot wear any shirts bc fabric irritates the front and back torso. I will continue to use this cream since it is the most soothing thing I've used thus far.

I've had shingles twice. The first time I after the sores healed I was left with nerve pain in my right shoulder. The dr told me there really wasn't anything that could be done for it. A couple of years later the shingles came back, plus I tore the rotator cuff in my left shoulder. I was miserable. My sister insisted I buy Organic Shingles Symptoms Relief Cream (she's a bit bossy.) I used a spatula and applied it to both shoulder and my back several times a day, very liberally, not expecting it to work. About three days after I started using it I woke up in the middle of the night and my right shoulder didn't hurt. Honestly, I was afraid to move in case the pain started up again. It didn't. The cream worked on the shoulder with nerve pain and I when the shingles healed up the second time I didn't have any additional nerve pain. The cream did not help with the torn rotator cuff, but then it doesn't claim to do that. I tried to stop using the cream, but the pain comes back when I quite. After the shingles healed up I only need to use the cream once a day to stop the nerve pain, except when I stopped using it and the pain came back. Then I had to use it several times a time before the pain went away. Once the pain stopped I was able to go back to using it once a day. One thing I would suggest it to use a lot of it at first. Another person told me that it wasn't working for them and I found out they were using it sparingly so that it would last. After the shingles are healed and the pain stops you don't need to use as much.
