Prurigo Nodularis

Prurigo Nodularis is a skin condition characterized by thick, itchy, raised bumps or nodules, often resulting from chronic scratching. It commonly affects areas like the arms, legs, and back. The exact cause isn’t fully understood, but it’s thought to involve nerve sensitivity and persistent itchiness that leads to a cycle of scratching and worsening skin. Conditions such as eczema, eczema, or other skin issues can sometimes contribute. Managing prurigo nodularis involves reducing itchiness through medications, skin care, and addressing any underlying causes, aiming to break the itch-scratch cycle and improve skin appearance.
