My flares seem worse when I am drinking a lot of coffee. Anyone else notice that, or am I imagining it?

The itching while healing is normal for a lot of us. Try not to scratch, and keep it clean and dry.

For me it was less the coffee itself and more drinking it on an empty stomach with no water all morning. Coffee can get things moving, and that can mean rushing. I started pairing it with breakfast and a full glass of water. Worth experimenting for a week or two and seeing what your body says.
