For the last month my skin has been so itchy everywhere. I have scratched and am getting scaring now.
I use Aveeno body wash in the shower, and Aveeno moisturiser when I get out.
I'm based in the UK.
Anyone have suggestions of any products or things I could try to get it to calm down?
The itching is from our nerves. The nerves are always firing and instead of hurt sometimes we itch. It's weird but that's what my dr told me
I have had skin itching and dryness for a long time. I recently started making smoothies and add organic coconut oil. Dr told me to use cerave lotion which has definitely helped. I also take antihistamines thanks to 2 pages of allergies. Try to use perfume and dye free laundry products. Itching continues you may want to consider allergy testing. I had to eliminate food allergies from my diet.
Nerve endings under the skin, once sensitive take a long time to calm down, and everything you do just keeps the cycle going. Have a look at Moogoo, it's here in Australia, but they have them in the UK as well. However check your shower heat is not too hot and potential food allergies causing it. Try antihistamines too.
Aveeno...only product i can use.
Cool showers warmer showers and baths make itching worse, Benedryl, I take Hydroxyzine for anxiety but also helps with itching.
