What to do if your skin is always itchy

Skin itching is a common condition in life. There are many reasons for itchy skin. Patients with skin diseases often feel itchy, such as eczema, dermatitis, ringworm, etc. In addition, itching often occurs in autumn and winter due to excessive dryness of the skin. Itchy skin brings great trouble to our lives, especially at night, seriously affecting the quality of sleep and interfering with the next day's work and study. So what should you do if your skin is always itchy? Let me give you a detailed introduction below.

Diet therapy

The best option is to nourish blood and yin through diet therapy:

Loach and Red Dates

30-50g loach, 20g red dates, a little salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer for 25 minutes over low heat. Add salt and MSG. It is recommended to take 1 dose per day for 10 consecutive doses. Loach is sweet and mild in nature. It enters the spleen, liver, and kidney meridians, can tonify the middle and replenish qi, strengthen essence and blood, and work together with red dates to nourish blood and moisten dryness.

Pangolin Casserole

100g pangolin meat, 5 slices of ginger, a little salt. Chop the pangolin meat into small pieces, put it into a pot, add ginger and appropriate amount of water, simmer over low heat until cooked, add salt to taste, and take it once every 3 to 5 days. It can be taken appropriately, but not too much. This medicinal diet mainly uses the pangolin's moving nature to open blood clots, disperse blood accumulation, and also has the effect of nourishing yin, achieving the purpose of nourishing blood and extinguishing wind, and is effective for stubborn skin itching.

Eight Treasure Pork Skin Porridge

Cook porridge with 100g carrots, 10g white hyacinth, 20g wolfberry, 20g sea cucumber, 100g pork skin and 100g japonica rice. Alternatively, you can use cooked rehmannia, angelica and glutinous rice porridge: 30g cooked rehmannia, 20g angelica, and 40g glutinous rice. A little tangerine peel powder. Take twice a day, once in the afternoon and once in the evening.

Millettia reticulata paste

500g Millettia reticulata and 500g rock sugar. Boil Millettia reticulata in water for 3 to 4 times and filter the juice. Concentrate the medicine over low heat, then add rock sugar to make it into a thick paste, which can be taken regularly. Millettia reticulata can nourish blood and promote blood circulation, while rock sugar can moisten dryness. This ointment is very effective for those who suffer from blood deficiency, wind dryness, and long-term illness.

Of course, in addition to the above-mentioned medicinal diet methods, patients should mainly eat light food and eat less spicy food, strong alcohol and strong tea. And you should consume high-fat foods in moderation. Fat can generate heat to help people resist the cold and moisturize the skin. Fatty foods are also beneficial for the intake of fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin A and vitamin E, which can prevent and treat dry skin and aging.

The above is the solution I introduced to you about what to do if your skin is always itchy. Friends who often have such symptoms may wish to try it. In addition, you can put a humidifier at home, which can effectively reduce the evaporation of skin moisture caused by dry air and relieve itching. In terms of diet and lifestyle, develop the good habit of drinking plenty of water, eating more vegetables and fruits, and avoiding spicy food. Make sure you get enough sleep and avoid staying up late.
