idk if this is something you’ve done/tried but for, colloidal oatmeal baths have actually been incredible for the pain and for healing the sores from the rash!

i have no idea how people in their 50s/60s/etc. manage through this one.

Never heard of that when it was relevant at the time. I'll keep that one tucked away for the nightmare scenario that it comes back.

Yeah, I can't imagine getting it when I'm too old to ever have enough cellular turnover to heal properly from it. I'm already too familiar with fire that never goes out.
