Understanding Prurigo Nodularis

Prurigo nodularis is a chronic skin condition characterised by very itchy, firm lumps. It can appear anywhere on the body but is most common on the arms, legs, back, and torso, in a symmetrical distribution. It is the most severe form of prurigo and thus can be difficult to treat.

Nodular prurigo can vary in severity, from a few to hundreds of lesions of varying size.

Initially, the rash consists of small, red or pink bumps (usually 3–8 mm in diameter), is intensely itchy, and is hyperpigmented. It is located in easily accessible areas of the body – lateral aspects of the arms and legs, shoulders, chest, and buttocks, and, in some cases, presents as a papule before developing into a nodule or a plaque.

Treatment for Prurigo Nodularis

Currently, there is no cure for Prurigo Nodularis. Everyone who experiences this condition presents in different ways, which requires some trial-and-error to find the right treatment. There is no cookie-cutter treatment for this condition. People may experience success with one, or a combination of, the following treatment methods:

• Topical creams
• Local corticosteroid injection to reduce inflammation
• Antihistamines
• Phototherapy
• Antibiotics
• Medications such as gabapentin, pregabalin, and naltrexone
• Immunosuppressive treatments in severe cases
