I hope this gave you some help...welcome to the group!..Hugs..Ginny Hi Ginny, isn't RSD weird????? I have no hair growth from my right knee and below. My nails on that foot grow very slowly. I think God smiled on me with the no hair growth because my lower leg has an "UNTOUCHABLE ZONE" LOL!! If I had to shave that leg I would have to be put under anesthesia LOL!!!! Even a drop of water or a breeze sets off pain that is just unbearable. I have to keep the area wrapped in ace wraps so nothing touches it. Plus the scars are so horrific I would keep it covered anyway just because it's so darn UGLY!! I have a collection of bandannas every color, pattern you could think of and I match them to my outfit and cover the ace wraps with them. People must think I am making some weird fashion statement or something!!! But then they see the crutches and the fact that that leg is about one-third the size of the other and probably realize I've got something to hide. Don't care what people think anymore. I am way past that stage. But I think deep down inside it still hurts........ Take care, hope you are well, Love Jai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
