Summary

A 31-year-old man developed itching and pins and needles in his palms and soles at the tail end of a cold about two months ago that may have been COVID. The itching built through the day, peaked in late afternoon, and came with cold hands and feet and faint under-skin rashes. Zyrtec did not help, while 15 minutes of treadmill cardio briefly cleared it. A COVID shot a week before his latest post preceded intensification; he remained hopeful it would settle.

  • COVID vaccination as treatment · WorseI thought it was gone a week ago (right before I got my covid shot which i am now regretting) and they intensified. In context ↗
