If that does not work, you can ,aybe get a doctor to prescribe stronger medications such as weak narcotics or benzodiazepines like Valium. For me,the "Morgellons" in my scalp became so painful last year, that my doctor has prescribed narcotics on an as needed basis. I lost a lot of hair, but as I lost hair, the pain also subsided. However, I still have those nights quite often where I just cannot get comfortable enough with the pain, itching, stinging, etc. and I cannot sleep. On those nights, I have found a half vicodin works very well to put me to sleep, and give me a very restful night.
So, in summary, NSAIDS, benzodiazepines and narcotics (doctor-prescribed) can also help. |
