According to my experience, it is estimated that itching is probably related to some allergies, such as external or subcutaneous parasites, or it may be a symptom of some internal diseases. Because the etiology of pruritus is complex, we should inquire about the medical history in detail, understand its occurrence and development, actively check the potential internal causes, and make corresponding treatments, so as to get twice the result with half the effort and achieve the goal of radical cure.
Therefore, for patients with itchy skin, stopping itching alone can't solve the fundamental problem in many cases. For patients with chronic, intractable and systemic itching, we should not treat them lightly. It is necessary to have a comprehensive physical examination, and pay attention to excluding leukemia lymphatic system tumors or endocrine and diarrhea diseases. Even if we can't find the cause for the time being, we can't relax our vigilance while treating the symptoms. We should have regular physical examinations.
These are very important principles for treating itching. For patients who can't find a clear reason, they should also take active general treatment. Important methods are as follows:
(1) Oral drugs: oral histamine, sedatives, blocking therapy, sex hormone therapy, etc.
(2) Local therapy: local blocking, acupoint blocking and external use of drugs.
(3) Physical therapy: ultraviolet irradiation, medicated bath, freezing and radiotherapy.
(4) Chinese medicine therapy: including oral Chinese medicine, external Chinese medicine and acupuncture therapy.
(5) Whether it is for internal use or external use, I suggest rational use under the guidance of a professional doctor after diagnosis, because blind medication is easy to cause adverse effects and side effects on the skin.
To prevent skin itching, we must pay attention to getting rid of the bad habit of scratching the skin and avoid all kinds of bad external stimuli, including bathing, dressing and eating.
In addition, itching is closely related to mental factors, so maintaining a good mental state and clearing the heart can often prevent or alleviate itching!
Suggestion: Patients with chronic, intractable and systemic itching with severe skin itching should go to a regular hospital for a general physical examination in time to find out the reasons before they can be cured.
