Preventing Itchy Skin From Dryness In Bathing
Dr Mary MacFadyen offers advice on skin dryness causing itchiness and outlines simple bath and shower precautions. Use lukewarm water and mild soap, avoid harsh scrubbing, and rinse soap thoroughly. A starch paste added to bath water soothes skin and reduces irritation.
Skin Care After Bathing
Dry your skin with a towel after bathing or let the water evaporate. Avoid drying lotions or toilet waters if you have itchy skin. Apply olive oil after the bath to soften the skin, rubbing in then wiping off excess. If itching persists, consult your physician to check for an underlying cause.
