All depends if u have a lot stress going n how your body handles it. Document your flare ups for future reference. Hope that helps

It really varies but also depends on whether I am able to shut down and just rest. If I can take time off work and focus on getting rest, I can get better in a week. But if I am still working, usually about three weeks, sometimes even a month.

Well everyone is different dear and the area of the body is different, just my opinion. I have a bad one now for four days now. This is one of mine on my breast. Very painful 😣.

I've gone through some life changing events in the mist of a pandemic and now training for a promotion while finishing and handing over my old on. Needless to say no rest and a lot of stress.

Thanks for the info.
