Itchy Skin
Itchy skin can be a nuisance. Scratching your skin can create lesions and infections so it's important to treat the itch instead of scratching it. The possible causes of itchy skin are similar to that of dry skin: a vitamin or essential fatty acid deficiency or dehydration. It could also be the result of a rash or bug bite.Itchy skin can also be the result of an allergy to soaps, lotions, detergents or even foods and medications. If it's an allergy, it may take a little detective work to find the culprit:
- Have you changed laundry soaps lately?
- Have you changed your body soap lately?
- Have you started using a new perfume or lotion? etc.
