    Hello,

    I have a sister who is 31 years old. She was diagnosed UC 2 years ago. She have problem with the itch in the back side. She went to the chemist and explain about her UC and the itch in the back side. They gave her a cream for it. I can't remember what the name of the cream. When i see my sister i get the name of the cream for you. She said the cream helps. Maybe if you are not embrass about ask someone at the chemist shop about your problem. I am sure they will help you out.

    Yes the itching is a symptom of UC, [b:96f8301054]Lanacane[/b:96f8301054] is a over the counter medication that might help smile

    Dr. Spock is right. The cream he gave you the name. That the cream my sister use. It is good cream. You can get it at the chemist shop. Thank you Dr. Spock for reminding me the name of the cream. I couldn't think of it.

    hi there thank u 4 all your replies . are any of u guys on a special diet ? i started to feel better when i stopped drinking beer eating seafood , and when i diminished my daily bread intake, and obviosly when i stopped all dairy stuff. it was a bit of a sacrifice at first, but eventualy i got used to it. latley i read that vodka, bacardi and white wine (if took moderatly) doesnt effect it that much. i tried it it effected my head cos the next morning i had a terrible hangover. mind u i didnt even think about drinking moderatly. well people hope to hear from u soon and thanks again .
