I've had really good luck with Eucerin products, especially if it is itchy, or as kittin suggested, hydrocortisone cream can be bought at the dollar store...usually under anti-itch cream.


Panda,

Listen to Poosy.

IF you need to promote healing of the skin, hydrocortisone cream.

But if the problem (as you've described it) is very dry skin continually cracking, Eucerin. You can get a small tub of it at the drugstore. I used to continually have trouble with cracked skin on my hands all winter. This works wonders.

Get yours today.

Status: offline 		Wow! Lots of good ideas. Thanks, guys, I really appreciate it. It felt like a silly question to ask, but there are so many skin-related products out there, I just had no idea where to start. And I didn't want to spend a couple of weeks with the whole back of my leg rubbed raw while I did the trial-and-error thing.

Aileen, I always have the utmost respect for everything you say, so your suggestion was the first one i tried. You're right; within seconds, I forgot all about my leg. Unfortunately, I neglected to consider the possibility of unintended consequences, and I'll be starting a new thread in a few minutes asking for advice about who makes the best home corneal transplant kits.

Sunshine, I really wanted to try your suggestion, but unfortunately it seems I'm not flexible enough to gnaw my own leg off. If you're ever in the Twin Cities area, though, you're more than welcome to help me.

Steven, I'd love to be able to go that route, but it's almost impossible for me to find  roomier pants. I've been a hiker, hockey player, and long-distance cyclist my whole life, and my legs don't fit most pants. That's a big part of the initial problem. I've got about a 36-inch waist, and 18-inch calves. As it is, I have to buy only the loosest styles of pants, and even then I usually wind up buying them with a waist size 4 inches too large and taking in the waist just so I can cram my legs into them. And even then, the loosest pants are still snug on my calves and thighs, but I just can't go any larger without looking like i just escaped from the circus.

Holly, I do have full length bicycle tights for cold weather cycling, but because of the size of my legs, they're pretty uncomfortable for extended wear. Same with long underwear, ski tights, and all the other similar suggestions. I am going to start keeping an eye peeled for even larger tights, but they're tough to find.

But Orion, you're onto something. I'm going to give that ace bandage a shot when i go out for a walk in a little while. It'll protect the abrasion, without the rest of me feeling like I've been vaccuum-packed.

Meanwhile, 2 straight days of Cortaid has helped it get to the point where it's at least no longer raw. I'll make a list of  a few of the products y'all have recommended, head off to the store, and see which one's easiest to find. It looks like it might be a winter-long battle, so I might as well try to get out ahead of it right from the get-go.

Panda...forget what i said about the spandex until you are completely healed. Your best bet would be to wear something made of cotton.

Gold Bond Extra Healing lotion in the evenings, sleep in shorts or nekkid from the waist down, and loose cotton pants like sweats (NOT jeans) during the day until the irritation is gone.

Agreed.  Gold Bond, while not the best smelling stuff of the planet, is My personal vote for what works best.  Some years back when I had a job that gave Me all kinds of skin irritations, I found that Gold Bond worked for a variety of things.

I hope you're feeling better and your skin improves.


ETA, I did forget to mention that, if the skin is in really bad shape, you may experience a temporary burning sensation, but it will relieve the pain afterwards.  Believe Me, it's worth it for the result you will get.

One thing you might try as far as creams and lotions is Udder Balm! Cheap and very effective in treating dry chapped hands and, of course is meant for curing chapped teats on dairy cows. Not the best smelling stuff, but not bad. Can be found even in some drug stores as well as most all farm and garden type stores.

Okay, here is a little known fact that many cowboys do not like having generally known......PANTYHOSE. Many cowboys do wear pantyhose to keep from chaffing after many hours in the saddle. Since the problem is on your calf you might be able just to get some knee-highs.


Edoted tp add" By the way...have you tried boot leg jeans? The have a little flare at the bottom to go over boots and may be somewhat looser than straight leg jeans.

Status: offline 		Panda, I have an ace bandage around my left calf as we speak. I am also looking into LaT's suggestion, for treating the dry skin. If I need it to exfoliate first, I will have to stay with my Dermarest products. Also, stay away from most things that have mineral oil in them if you have any swelling around the dry areas. The Lubriderm has mineral oil, and I only use it in selective areas. Things with natural oils, especially sesame seed oil, is great. If you try the hydracorizone creme and it seems to get worse, then have your Doctor look at it, as it may be psoriasis like I have.

A&D Ointment (found in the baby aisle) is awesome stuff and i swear by it.


A&D is the main ingrediant in my homemade 'moon cream', which my entire family swears by. No child in our family has ever suffered from diaper rash, no elder has ever had a bed sore. This stuff works.

Take a BIg tub of A&D. empty half of it into some container with a secure lid. buy pharmacutical grade Boric Acid at the pharm, also some zinc oxide powder.
Stir in both till you can't stir in no more.

If you are all properly witchy, cast a circle around your outside alter, and leave it out overnight on the night of the full moon, surrounded by symbols or gift as approprate to your personal faith, to mooncharge it, thus gaining it's name, 'moon cream'.

However, my sister who runs a daycare is fundie, and she skips this step, and swears it does no damage to the miraculous abilities of the mooncream.

hope your rash is better very soon.

Have you considered Mall walking?

And panda, try queen size pantyhose to protect it if regular long johns can't be worn.

Status: offline 		In addition to the dryness of your skin, you may have suffered a cold injury, FYI. Whatever-  the large surface area and the cracking mean that you need to get this fixed ASAP. Any cracks in the skin can easily let bacteria in, and you can get a serious infection in no time. If I were you I'd go to the doctor and get a referral, and go to the dermatologist right now yesterday.

Wow, I've never had that problem but I am pretty religious about applying it before I get to the cracked phase. I just love that they use all natural ingredients and no petroleum products. I just looked at the ingredient list on my tube and am not even sure what would cause the burning sensation. maybe the rosemary leaf extract...

Yes. My bad. The right name is Bag Balm. One can goes a long way so it has been a LONG time since I last bought any. Thanks for the correction.
