If patients with itching have systemic itching, it is likely to be caused by the patient's own endocrine abnormalities. In daily life, the prevention of itching requires everyone to develop good life rules, go to bed early and get up early, exercise properly and strengthen their resistance.

Increase or decrease clothes in time, don't let the weather get cold, keep warm to look good, and avoid hot and cold stimulation. It's best not to drink cold drinks in winter, and don't drink or eat too cold food or drinks in summer.

Patients with systemic itching should pay attention to reducing the number of baths, and do not excessively scrub the skin and use alkaline soap when taking a bath. Underwear should be made of cotton, loose and comfortable, and avoid friction.

Keep relaxed at ordinary times, avoid anger and anxiety, and build confidence. Actively look for reasons and eliminate inducing factors. Quit smoking alcohol, strong tea, coffee and all spicy and stimulating foods, and supplement fat in your diet moderately, but don't overdo it, let alone eat too much fat.

Skin pruritus refers to a kind of skin disease that itches consciously without primary skin lesions, which is called "itching wind" or "wind itching" in Chinese medicine. The reason of skin itching is that with the increase of age, the water content of subcutaneous tissue decreases, the elasticity decreases, and the subcutaneous fat glands are not secreted enough, which makes the skin dry and shrink, exposed to wind, humidity, heat, insects invading the sun or nerve, emotional excitement, overheating of clothes and quilts, mechanical stimulation, etc.

Common in the elderly and autumn and winter, itching is both systemic and local. It is suggested that if it is only a slight local itching, some topical drugs with moisturizing effect without hormones can be used (cod liver oil ointment, urea ointment, etc.).

If it is severe itching and obvious large area rash, or if the skin has dermatitis symptoms such as redness, ulcer and exudation, don't choose drugs for treatment without authorization. You should go to the hospital immediately and use topical and oral drugs under the guidance of a doctor to avoid further deterioration of your condition.
