I need help with my severe itching, any helpful ideas?
I was diagnosed with PBC in January 2026. I have had itching for years but it has really gotten bad before my diagnosis and still really bad after I have been on medication. Are there any of you that have some helpful ideas to calm the itching?
Thanks for chiming in and sharing
! That PBC itch can be relentless. Some people find a bit of relief with keeping the skin cool (cool showers, cold packs, or sleeping in a cooler room) and using thick, fragrance-free moisturizers right after bathing. I also want to share with you an article from our site that talks more about more treatment options for the itching.
