No problems with itching, but I noticed if I have my face shield open, or am not wearing a helmet, my nose is big enough to create some issues when there is a strong crosswind - I end up riding with my head slightly turned to one side.

But beware the state that has a "No public mask" statute.

Benadryl makes an anti itch cream that will take care of it .

Mine itches on the outside , must be the pollen .

Comes in a small tube ... don't leave home without it.

I don't see anything weird about asking for advice about a very real problem. I thought that's what this forum was all about. I was looking for some help and got some - glad not everyone thinks like you... just sayin

If you wear a full face helmet, the face shield is just at the right distance from your beak to create static electricity and that tickles you nose. Try opening the shield just a bit. just my 2c
