I was just wondering if anyone out there has suffered from a skin condition called Pityriasis Rosea? This is when you contract a virus which turns into a skin rash which can cover the whole of your body. This rash can be itchy and very dry and can last for a few weeks or a few months?
I suffered from it last year very badly and it lasted for about 6months, I still have some discoloration on my skin from the rash and in fact it was so bad even doctors were shocked at how bad it was. This was the 3rd time I have had this condition. Has anyone else suffered from this and if yes have you suffered from it more than once?

Cocoa butter and aloe very are very effective in dealing with this rash. It clears up in its own time but mine was rather short lived. I have some friends who had it so bad they looked like they had leprosy or something. I told them what I used and theirs cleared up. If it keeps coming back you may need to change the way you generally care for your skin.
