What Can Causes Eczema All Over The Body And Nodular Prurigo?
I carried stents for 5 months (from the ladder through the ureter to the kidney) because of a botch hysterectomy by lap surgery. Damaged arteries couldn t supply blood to the ureter. I have been getting bad eczema all over my body which in turn triggered nodular prurigo, another skin disorder. I ve been told my immune system reacted to the stent. Is that possible. Thanks.

Hello,no, if immune system is reacting to a locally placed stent, it willnot present as generalised eczema or nodular prurigo..Both are separate entities.
I would adv you to visit a dermatologist for evaluation of your skin condition.
Management will be as per the extent and severity of ur condition
Thanks
